Default Is a Spring a Spring? Eibach or H&R? Any Advice?

I am putting a lower suspension on my new A4 Cab. I know nothing about this stuff. Is their any difference between these two brands or is their another brand/idea reccomended? Thanks for the feedback.

Default Springs can have different "rates' and lower a car different amounts. Call the manuf'r

and ask for the specs. In general the shocks should also be changed to try to "match" the spring-rates as most after-market lowering springs are too firm for the stock shocks. Make sure the spring you get is for your particular car.
