Default Installing lowering springs (H&R) on S5

Hi all,

The S5 is my first euro car and I was wondering if I should look out for any major differences between installing springs on a Japanese car.

Any advice/tips would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks.

Realtively simple swap assuming you have a spring compressor!

One more thing... I've read about steering wheel vibration in some A5/S5s. Does installing springs increase the chance of this happening? Has anyone heard of lowering springs inducing this issue?

Thanks in advance.
