Default audi lowering

It seems to me like my audi is on stilts. Looks so much higher then other a4s, oh well. I just put 18s on it and it look sick, but i need to lower the car about 1 - 2 inches. I never lowered a car before so i need advice. What product should i buy to lower it? Whats the best price? stuff like that.....thanks

Yeah really...
Judging by your experience here (read: post numbers), you'd think you'd have done a search on this...

Sorry...
Coilovers are the long term best investment because they allow for height adjustment (sophisticated CO's have dampening adjustments, too).
Lowering springs are OK provided you don't drop too much. The greater the drop, the greater the stress on the stock shocks. So, most spring packages offer matching shocks.

That should get you started.

True. My FK SP CO's were pricey, but I got lucky on the introduction of the model line when it was first introduced for the S4. Got them for 40% off list!! Woohoo!

Here's my usual repsonse to this post:


H&r s4 ultra coilovers. I love them because I can jack the car way up for winter and way down for summer
