I washed my car too today


Then I looked in this thread and realized how bad my car looks not being lowered. I need to lower this thing hard core. I think I might do it before I do headlights. Rims would help x1000.

how would you compare it to a stock suspension based on comfortability? i was going to get my 98 b5 lowered this summer with some h&r/ bilstein/ or koni coilovers...but my only question is i wanted my ride comfortability to be unchanged or improved. ive ridden in "dropped" rides before and even though they look cooler, every little bump in the road or even a little crack made the car bounce and shutter and hurt ur ***(no joke). i just don't want my audi to feel like a cheap import when just cruising down a residential area. plus you know how the roads and freeways are out here in SO Cal. especially with the rain season and potholes.

honestly its more stiff obviously and u will notice more bumps... but with the 32 way adjustable option u can make it as soft as u want... i have mine set at 16 in the front and 14 in the rear (i have subs in the back) going through the grapevine it hugs the road better but its still soft enough when ur going over the dips its a smooth transition

hmmm...thats interesting. this may sound like a noob question but why don't you adjust it to be as comfortable(soft) as possible? or would that just make it really bumpy over speed bumps...

well its still 100x softer than most imports with coilovers... plus the leather seats help too lol... but the main reason is i likemy cars ride to be a lil stiffer than normal haha
