Default The one pictured on Tirerack is not necessarily the one for the S4.

I think the one shown on AWE is the S4 application. Tirerack just uses a generic picture of an H&R.

Default I bought some from tirerack and they were black. It dropped my car alot,I can't put my finger betwe

between the tire and fender wanted to know if they messed up or what? It was only suppose to be a 1.3back and 1.4 in the front it has dropped it atleast 2-3 from the way it sits. Wanted to know if I should contact H&R or tirerack. The camber and toe is off and they can't fix it due to being low. Just want to know what I should do and if it is suppose to sit that low. I'm looking to change springs so I can raise it up.
(didn't mean to write a novel)
Thanks,

Default No.

H&R only makes 1 spring set for the S4 Sedan. They may occassionally change the color from time to time, but that's no indication that the springs are differently wound.

Verify your springs by the PN printed on each spring. You can contact H&R directly to make sure you have the correct set. In my experience however, the H&R Sports for the S4 sit about 1.7". Much too low for most.

If you want a less agressive height, consider Eibach, Vogtland, or MTM.
