Re: No body roll....

I hope you don't think that I do not apeciate your input, in fact I thought about what you said so I called Eibach, and they told me to measure my car. I did and it came out very close to thier test Audi set up. The young man I spoke with was really great and felt the car was well with-in spec, he did offer to replace them if they were bad. He said he felt sure that this leaves the shocks at fault. My car has not had an increase in body roll, it is taking bumps like expansion joints much harder than before. Any sharp bump across the road makes me grit my teeth when I hit it,when before I just rolled over them, I am not the type that does not like a hard ride, I just do not like a harsh ride that seems like it is not normal. Your input helped me consider the springs, and call Eibach, so thank you.

Re: I'm going to replace mine with Bilsteins...

FWIW, according to the Bilstein tech I spoke with, Eibach does most of its testing with Bilstein dampers, moreso than any other spring vendor. It was thus his opinion that Eibach spring rates were best suited for the Bilstein products.<p>Jim<p>PS: I'm using H&R sports with my Bilsteins. The setup works OK, but it seems to have room for improvement.
