anyway.....

i reckon the car needs lowering a little.... only 30mm really....
sooooo.... does anyone have any recommendations of brands of springs to buy?? i'd like to keep the lush handling, but just drop it 30mm without too much adverse effect on the ride....

any thing to bear in mind?? they're 18's so i'm hoping it won't scrub etc when i drop it 30....

thanks in advance lads & lasses... youz lot know more than i do about audi's...

peas...

Nice ride!!!

I would get some nice coilovers. Bilstein has some nice 9-way adjustable coilovers but they're not cheap. Also, not sure what the availability of different products are in Europe opposed to the States.

Cheers!

The Recaro's look like a better version that the seats I sat on in a Saab 9-3 2.0T Aero 2005 (before Saab adopted the Holden V6 and added a turbo to its Aero model in 2006). But still too funky for me.

Regarding a drop while maintaining a lush ride, I would recommend either Eibach Pro-Kits or Neuspeed Sports.
