Yes. That looks perfect. I'm hoping for a similar ride height for my car.
And those 19"s have grown on me. They look so classy. Better than the ones on the S4 for sure.

You can swap it out. No problem. But why would you want to swap it out? In my view, only non-sport A4s look like they are on stilts. The ones with adaptive/sport suspension look low enough. If my car had either, I wouldn't have even considered lowering springs. I want lowering springs only to get rid of the HUGE wheel gap.

I agree with you 100%. If I had the sport suspension I would not be looking for springs. I'm not into that slam look don't even know if that's what you call it lol. BTW you can now pre-order EmmanueleDesign springs on their web-site a 1.6 inch drop and its all about retaining stock ride quality.

I think this is feasible. I've ran H&R "OE" springs in the past which were slightly lower than OEM sport (1.2" vs .75" or so) and the ride quality was comparable to stock on reg/rough roads, but much stiffer when tossing her around because they were progressive springs. Best of both worlds, that's what I'm waiting for.

Prokit: 1.20"=30.48mm
Sports Susp: 0.91"=23.00mm
So the prokit is only 7.48mm lower than OEM sports suspension?

I think his car didn't have the sports suspension (I could be wrong though). There are a few pics of cars that have the sport/adaptive suspension and then lowered on lowering springs. Didn't look too different to my eyes.
