Default Does not look promising...

1.) he can't spell Audi
2.) Does not say if it is a full set- front and back
3.) Does not say if it is for Quattro or FWD
No details at all, I would stay away

Default Alot of them for sale... separate listings for Quattro

Which makes this item FWD only.

Default I don't know what to get then........

I am returning this Intrax cup kit to Hartmann motorsport because after 3 weeks they couldn't get me the proper parts and I'm just sick of dealing with them. I've seen many pics of H&amp;R and Eibach springs, and the setup doesn't look low enough for my tastes. I prefer the 1.5" drop that the Intrax springs offer, but I refuse to do business with Hartmann.

Default Well..

The issue is the suspension design.. and if you lower that low.. both handling performance, and comfort will be hurt. You'd probably be happy with the Eibachs IMO... the drop is pretty decent with my Bilstein Sports.

Default On both of my Audi A4s.......

I have Neuspeed/Bilstein shocks with adjustable spring perches. Is that possible with the shocks for the TT?
