Has any fitted the Eibach springs to their S4 and if so what has been their experience.
Thanks

I took some advice on these springs from AmD. I actually went for the H&R spings myself which lowered the car, tightened the handling without making the car bounce over every dimple in the road.

AmD advised that the Eibachs are far to hard for UK roads and also were not progressive.

I suggest you get your own advice from AmD or from QuattroSports before making a decision.

Hope this helps

Sounds good - that's what you need to aim for - a compromise between ride height, ride firmness and practicality.

I must admit that I have to be very careful over speed bumps as every time the car bottoms the Milltek gets knocked upward reduciing the clearance with the underside of the car. This means than when the exhaust is very hot it vibrates and knocks against the underside and has to be re adjusted. Pain in the arse.
