Default Suspension Question

I am going to get coilovers eventually, but for now I want to lower the car and get rid of my wheel gap!

I generally have used H&R on my previous vehicles and have been happy with the results.

Doing some research H&R only offers sport springs for the S4. Part number 29477-1

But for the A4 Quattro they have race springs that lowers the car an extra half inch. Part number 29996-1.

Can I use the A4 race springs? I did a search and tried to pull up previous posts, but could not find any. Thanks!

"But for now" save your money until you can afford the coilovers.

Ehh you guys are so right, thats almost always my motto, but I wanted the gaps gone so bad! But i'll wait for the ol' tax check.

Thanks for the sense knocked back in me!

No problem, just think of the money and time you'll "save" in installation ;-)

Good point. Don't forget about alignment costs as well.
