Default Coilovers

I've narrowed my choices between the h&r and the bilstein pss9, I know the h&r has no dampening adjustment but the price is good. What I am concerned with is trying to get great handling with some comfort. I had koni coilovers on my b5 a4 and I loved them.What do you guys think?

which h&r's?

Regardless the pss9's are the ****! my friend has them in his b5 a4 and they are tremendous!! cornering is absurd and they feel great around town. i'm looking to get the pss9's or kw 2 or 3's when i get my engine finished and drop it back in.

I've decided against the bilstein pss9 as they only lower the car less than 1.5", my choices now are between the fk konisport, the vogtland damper adjustable and the H&R, Im leaning more towards the vogtland what do you guys think and do any of you have the vogtlands on your car?

The PSS9s go lower than 1.5". As for ride quality, a friend of mine has them on a stage 3 S4, and they ride firm but very nice, as well as being able to handle the violence his engine can dish out. Very very nice coils IMO.

I decided against the votgland I spoke to a tech and he told me the votgland has more of a stock feel with the ability to lower,I think it has to due with the extra weight of the b6 s4 motor over the a4 the reason performance is a little lacking.He recommends the H&R which are a little stiffer and more performance oriented, so my search is over Im going for the H&R's.
