Default Air to spring

Hello all. I drive a 2001 A6 C5 Allroad Quattro with the 2.7 twinsies. I recently had the front driver's side airbag blowout after fixing it myself with tire slime, which worked awesomely for a couple of days till it popped. I found someone in my area who has the oem "sport" shocks and springs off of a 2007 A4 B7 s-line. My question is are these shocks and springs compatible with my allroad to use as an air to Spring conversion?

Default Great!!

The ride was honestly not as smooth and fluffy as the oem air suspension but the handling was still very responsive and sporty. They definitely accomplished the lower profile I was looking for. Still a cheap set of coilovers at the 750$ price tag in comparison to whats available out there. Not bad bang for your buck though. Unfortunately none of it matters now cause a semi truck driver illegally turned into my lane and that car got totalled.
