Default question about lowering....

Just put on my new shoes (17x8 BBS RX, 225/45/17 SP9000s) and now want to lower the car, strictly for appearance purposes. I have the sport package, and don't want to completely lose ride quality. How much lower are Eurosport springs compared to the OEM sport package springs? anyone have gripes about their Eurosports w/17" wheels? I'd really like to hear opinions on these springs.

Default I think they're great. You'll get more lowering than sport package. Not too aggressive either.

You can use your existing sport shocks too. Try to go with a Bilstein sport shock though if you can. People say it's better. I can't tell you first hand on that one though, since I run eurosports with NON-Sport shocks. The ride's a bit pogoey let me tell you. Good luck with the upgrade. And post pics after you do it!<p><img SRC="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/AudiWorldPics/2000/Prashantsig2.jpg" BORDER=0></a>
