2002 RS6 ARB's?

Post by tartan_rob » Thu Sep 04, 2008 10:59 pm

Car is on Std suspension. Is it worth changing these for aftermarket? If so, what difference can I expect and what is the cost..?

They stiffen up the chassis , less roll in the bends.

Grizz,

How much are they, and are they worth fitting with New DRC?

Cost me £345 + vat + fitting.

They definitely improve the handling and go to the stiffest setting on the back (setting 2) at 67% stiffer than OEM.

However, if and I mean if DRC is working, why would you want new ARB's. It's unnecessary...... but then will you ever see DRC working properly?????
