What is a good spring setup for stock S4 shocks? I'm not looking to drop the car much or at all.

Default None, you should upgrade your shocks with any new lowering spring.

The Vogtland springs offer a good drop at only .8". Great when combined with KONI Sport shocks.

Default Stock dampers are pretty good.

New shocks are probably going to have a longer life, but at considerable and possibly unnecessary expense. I have stock shocks with MTM springs with 1.5" drop for 50k miles with no problems. Not sure, but someone said that these same shocks are used in Europe with lower ride height.
