Can you get a front strutbrace for the b7 S4? My car seems to lean alot on the corners?

Not sure about a front strutbrace but have you fitted the RS4 RARB? This does a lot ot reduce understeer and leaning.

Addtionally lowering the ride height will reduce the amount of lean. You may have to make a compromise on the ride though. There are some H&R springs for sale by P_G from the RS4 forum.

90%. The RARB is a stright fit. However the bushes and the brackets needs changing. Search either RS246, Audizine, Audiworld for more info including guides showing how to DIY.
