Used but not many miles on them I believe before being swapped out for coilovers
These were included when I bought my Avant recently as previous owner bought but didn't get round to fitting them
No visual damage to the springs (excuse the dirt on them, they will be cleaned up before being sold!)
£150 collected from N London

Hi mate,
Pardon my lack of knowledge here! I have ss+ And the rear end sits just right. However the front is a bit high - will fitment of these springs at the front achieve A lower stance ?
If so I'll take them!
Cheers

No mate you'll get the same stance. The front sits high on all fixed aftermarket setups.

As Jay stated, the full setup will still have the fronts sitting a little higher than the rears unfortunately (still better than OEM)
Fitting just the fronts is an option, there are a few owners who have done this, Nigel's car looks spot on (hope he doesn't mind me posting!)

A couple of guys in the states have the the same on Audizine
A forum member recommended The TT Shop who can fit the springs without disconnecting the DRC, apparently they have done a few cars now. MRC can also fit and would do it the proper way by discharging and recharging DRC on completion if you prefer this.
I would probably consider fitting fronts only on mine if I was keeping, reason for sale is, my car is 100k+ miles and the original shockers are more than likely see better days. So will just hold out until they give up totally and save for coilovers.
My reasons for considering the springs was to level out the stance without comprismising on the ride comfort.
Plus a cheaper option to get the right stance without coughing up nearly £2k for coilovers/fitting and 4WA

I've got em and like em, but wish I'd just fitted the fronts for this very reason.

Order B5 perches from Audi £26 will lower the front another inch with these springs will sit flush like the rear. Just ordered some and doing mine this weekend.

Looking forward to the updates on yours, I've read and heard about using B5 perches, but have yet to come across someone who has actually gone and done it

H&R spring with front B5 perch mod done successfully in the states by a few guys
Looks perfect and still retaining DRC comfort
These B7 are all confirmed with H&R springs, the Daytona has done the B5 perch mod
If mine wasn't a high miler I wouldn't hesitate to put these on as I was very impressed by them when I had them on my Mugello

Did you do the b5 spring perches on your Mug RS4 mate? Difficult to tell from the picture.

No I didn't, as I'd bought the Mugello with the springs already installed, and to be honest the stance wasn't bad at all, it does sit a tiny bit higher at the front but marginal, handled like its on rails too
I'll try dig out a lightly better shot of my old one
