H&R Lowering springs

Post by rs4head » Thu May 17, 2012 10:02 pm

I know these can be fitted without disconnected the DRC - was wondering is it possible to fit just to the front to bring the high nose down on the car? Are the spring rates similar enough not to affect the handling? The rear stance of the car is fine as it is in my opinion

Read grizz's post on Drc repair.
My understanding of the H and R springs is that they are well mated to our suspension such that no need to change shocks. Strangely enough, if u retro fit the audi sports suspension plus , it lowers car by 10mm, the shocks are also changed to match.

Glenn at Revolution lowered only the front with H and R, but he did it VIA audi whereby Drc was repressurised.
