Default Stassis Street Sport or Track Sport ??????

Street Sport is about a grand and Track Sport is about 2 grand. anybody running these coilover suspensions? What is the main purpose for me spending an extra grand on the Track Sport.

Thanks

Default if u plan to track your car and if your area has nice roads, go for tracksport.

Street sport is a good compromise between comfort and performance

Default Get the tracksports.

Higher rate springs, better shocks, higher rear vs. front rates to balance out the car.

Default I have Street Sports and love them. The extra grand will get you...

better performance, customized spring rates and more adjustability. STA for more details or wait and someone on this board will probably chime in (see link below for starters).

If you honestly think that you will be tracking your car on a regular basis, the TrackSport or MotorSport probably will make more sense.

I'm sure that you will not have trouble spending the extra $1000 that you'll save if you go with Street Sports. One thing is for sure however, you'll always want more after the $2,000 is gone.

Happy modding!<ul><li><a href="http://www.stasisengineering.com/audi_s4_b5_suspension.html">StaSiS Suspensions</a></li></ul>

One is more compliant (SSS), the other is more harsh but more "sporty" (H&amp;R)...

Default That's 70 more lbs. up front and 100 more in the rear cant be all that different than stock

handling (performance) right? At a minimum, the HR Streets should be a substantial difference @ 450/450 right?
