Audi a4 b7 suspension

[Zakaudi]

Hi Guys!

Im new to this so please bare with me!

Just recently bought an Audi A4 Quattro S line on a 05 plate (B7), I have 1 question which is driving me nuts and hope some one can give me the answer?

From my understanding the s line models have a lower suspention setting to the base and se models, but how low?
I was thinking of upgrading my suspension to eibach springs but taking into account i already have an S line set up will it be worth the cost?

What is the difference in height by mm in the eibach springs and the standard s line springs?

:1zhelp:

Thank you guys

The S line is about 10 to 15-mm lower and the Eibach’s will be about 25-mm lower again as they give approx 40-mm on a standard car.

Thank you for your reply, im at ease now!

:beerchug:

But im slightly confused :confused:

Now i know the difference between the two im in a slight dilemma?

Im thinking of getting a set of Rs4 19" black alloys from ebay (see the link)

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170226972018&_trksid=p3907.m32&_trkparms=tab%3DWatching

Do you think it will be worth me getting the 19" alloys and also dropping it on the Eibach?

or should i just forget about the Eibach, your input would be greatful?

They don't list the ET of those wheels or the intended tyre dimensions. PM me your chassis or reg number.

Hi Crasher sorry cant PM as im new to the site and "BIG BROTHER" wont allow access!

my reg: (I trust you guyz) ;)



Thanks once again

[Crasher]

Delete that reg number now. Audi’s maximum recommend size for an 8EC 0E9 (which is what I think your cars is) is an 8x18 ET40 running 235/4018 tyres so an 8x19 would need a 235/35 19 tyre. Unfortunately that advert doesn’t tell you tyre or wheel ET info.
