Default I want these springs to work...

Will they work for my 2.8 Avant? Would the added weight just make the car a bit lower...or worse?s

but as long as your pearches are the same, the only real "problem" if they fit you will have is maybe a lil crappier ride and sit lower due to heavier engine

That was my understanding of the difference between 1.8T and 2.8 springs - the fronts at least are heavier duty for the 2.8 due to the heavier engine. The rest should be the same.

deff. worth the $75 to give it a shot, but its sounds like wut most ppl said the front is probably gunna be lower, but then again the added weight in the back may level it out anyway.
