Mr Rolskii

How low are you on the front. I set mine 30mm alround but thinking of cropping the front another 10-20 mm. I don't find the ride harsh at all at the moment. The rear looks spot on but the frnt looks like it needs a little more.

Thanks David,

I will have a good read of this. Interestingly I had my first experience of scraping the DTS at the weekend so will have to seriously consider leaving the extra drop.

Hi Darren,

Well Im not sure on the actual specs on how low, as i havent measured it up properly yet, but my front tyres are just disapearing inside the arches by 10mm, its a bit harsh and feels like its to high at the back, its very direct on steering though - which i like alot .. Im waiting for the skies to clear, then I will get fiddling again, gonna get the optimum from the posted threads and try for that,
I had H&R's on my first s4, absolutely fantastic, but had that quite low for some time, it was good, bumpy, but when I got it to a sensible hieght, the ride and drive were seriousely regained, no bumpsteer ... so dont go too low :thumbs:

David :D
