Default suspension...

...is a harder decision than wheels. At least it is in my situation. Stasis Street Sports, Bilstein PSS9's, Vogtland...and how come more people aren't running coilover kits such as Eibach and H&R. It seems a lot of people are running Stasis, but it's just Koni. This is the most confusing decision ever. I'm sure I'll be happy no matter what, just because I have the non sport suspension on the avant and anything will feel better than that. But I want the best for my money, I don't know what to do. Any advice is appreciated.

Default Well the Stasis Motorsports are nice...

I was in the same boat as you and decided on the Vogtlands.

Default Depends on what you're looking for...

I was never looking for a track-ready suspension set-up, so I put my A4 on street-friendly Koni adjustable shocks & H&R springs. If you're looking for better performance, consider coilovers. Otherwise, a nice shock/spring combo will give you performance without sacrificing too much in the way ride quality. With purchase and install, I paid about $900.

Default PSS9 is on par with the Stasis Tracksport...

I personally don't think the Stasis Street sport fits my needs. I like the adjustability of my PSS9s. If I had unlimited cash..I would probably have Stasis Motorsports...but then I would also probably have a different car altogether.

I really like my PSS9s, but I lean towards the performance end. I have tracked and plan to track my car a lot.

PSS9 is very nice with features not found on any coilovers less than $2500

Default Vogs or PSS9

<center><img src="http://www.startupracing.com/images/Suspension/968467.jpg"></center><p>Koni is too soft for me,

Vogs are perfect for street use. (Vogs are in stock here.)

PSS9 is the affordable track setup. Though I think it will be too harsh for some, and little too much if all you are doing is driving on the street.<ul><li><a href="http://www.startupracing.com/B7ProductsSuspension.htm">Vogs</a></li></ul>
