For what car? I assume RS4 B7. In which case, saloon or avant / cab?

Rs4 b7, saloon but I’m pretty sure they are the same on a Avant.

No not the same on avant.
Cab and saloon is different rear.

Heavier cab and avant are the same rear, lighter saloon is different.

I think they fit but I thought the springs were different for avant and cab. Unless I'm getting mixed up with the OEM springs. Can't see anything online that differentiates the KW kit for the different body styles so maybe I'm getting mixed up.

That's what I thought, I looked it up before I done the deal and couldn't see anything?
Does anybody else know for certain?
Cheers

Thanks Mike, The kerb weight between Saloon and Avant is only 60kg. The difference between saloon and cab is 200kg. After speaking to Ilya I think it will be fine if they are for the saloon, I just need to set them a tad higher and let them settle.
Worst case scenario I just sell them on at same price
