Again, I had Neuspeed and not H&R, but they're pretty similar from what I've heard and read.

Overall, I appreciated the stiffness of the suspension, especially when the going got twisty, but it didn't break my back when I would hit a pothole. At the same time, I was 17 when I got rid of the car and bumps didn't yet bother me too much.

Thanks for taking the time and posting some pictures. It definitly doesn't look too low as I thought I would be. It looks awesome that's about the clearence I want. I'll start looking into neuspeed race. Thanks for the advice kolbs_91. That A4 look great!

I know a guy who is selling some eibach lowering springs. I am just looking to decrease the gap a bit on my b5, not really looking to spend big dough on coilovers.

Would it be bad to drop the car and use the shocks that were put in by the factory 100k ago? I am guessing this would cause excessive wear on them.
