Just 2 more needed then? Anymore takers?

I'll post a thread about this in the B7 RS4 section as I bet there are loads who only browse specific forums.

Any chance of getting anything on a B8 S5 3.0T?

Also, if so what's the difference between these and springs? I'm about to order 25mm H&R springs but could be tempted on this depending on what the difference is.

This kit has adjustable ride height whereas springs normally are fixed height.

Cheers for that. Next questions, once you have found the height you like why would you ever need to adjust them? Also, how easy is it to adjust them?

Thanks in avance.

Nickyboy, this is what Grizz said about adjusting after they've been fitted:
grizz wrote:Once fitted it ok to adjust , takes a bit of time on the rear but not too bad .

Yes it keeps the drc .
That was in reference to the B7, I don't know if this would be the same for the B8.

I might want to adjust if the original setting was too low and I am scraping a lot or rubbing on the tyre, or if the original height wasn't low enough and I find that ground clearance is still fine.
You might buy new tyres that are a little wider or squarer and find they rub so might need a little lift. I guess it depends on how low you want it. I want it quite low so might need fine tuning to get it exactly right. If you are riding higher then once you set it you probably won't need to touch it again.

Hi Grizz,

I would like to join the group buy, if you can supply me a set to Australia.
I have sent you an email, if you could respond when you get a chance.
I think I also need a new left rear DRC shock for the B7 RS4, if you can supply me this also?

Thanks,
Greg
