Default Suspention (HELP)

Ok. My car has been lowered since the summer.(Audi A4 97 1.8T FWD)

But when i lowered it I put 19s on her so at the time it simply looked good.

But now that i have my winter set up on, I hate it !

I have the Eibach Pro-Kit..i beleive my car is lowered 1.4 in front and 1.3 in the rear, this sucks because u can really sqaut Audis in the rear and mine is no where near the way i want it to look...the front is fine.

Anyway can someone help me out with a good set of springs that will give my car an even-slammed look? But not too low. Hopefully someone can help.

Thanks

I'm having trouble comprehending what you're trying to achieve. Nevermind, because it doesn't really matter. Buy some H&R coilovers, and set the height where you want it.

Default hmmm when spring comes are you putting teh 19s back on?

if so then live with it for 2 more months. If not buy coilovers like Raj said, or maybe some race springs they will slam it....

Ya. The 19s will be back on.

But i still want the car a little lower.

I cant afford coilovers. lol

Im only 19 and in college so im just looking for
a set of springs.

Basically i just want an even set up i hate the way my car is on a slight angle right now. i want something like 1.5 rear and front. IS that possible?

well I have grooved bilsteins and H&R Race springs, the drop is pretty low, especially since i live in the city. They are on the middle perch, my shocks are.

Assuming you have the non adjustable ones, I would get H&R race springs, you'll get the drop you want. Pretty stiff ride with that setup hwoever, so be prepared.
