I've got H&R's on mines (apparently) when i bought it, the handling feels great but in edinburgh it's a nightmare with all the cobbled roads.
I piss everyone off driving at 10mph over them incase I damage them, it might explain why I never hear rubbing though :D

im also getting lowering springs at some point, think ill be getting the eibachs tho as ive heard the best reviews about them overall, the only thing i cant decide is whether to go for the pro kit or the lower sportlines, is the drop of the pro kit enough to notice, ive got an fr on 18" audi rs4 wheels

any advice/opinions would be great :)

cheers, Mark

Going to lower my K1 with H&R's but what wheel spacers look and work best with the standard 18" wheels and the K1 bumpers as I don't want to undress my car going over bumps and round corners!

well after many hours, much sweat, tears and swearing my eibach sportlines are on! lol the rears were a piece of 'something really easy' however the fronts were a nightmare... the struts took alot of persuasion to come out of the grip at the bottom... all done now though :) doesn't seem to have changed much at the moment... do they take time to bed in? anyone else experienced this?

will post picks on my RR at the weekend :)

Hi Mate, thinking of fitting these to my FR PD170 how is the ride comfort and how does it handle three other passengers and multistory car parks?

Cheers
