Default Abt springs, s-line or other ? What's the best to keep the most comfort ?

I would like to lower my car with springs.
Just cant make up my mind. I have 19s rims and stock suspension.
Now i want to lower my car a bit. About +- 1 inch.
What would be the best aftermarket spring to keep the most comfort ?

Default I put Bilstein/Eibach on my car and I think that it rides better. I used to get a crash and wallow

over bumps, now I just get the thud. I had a guy with a stock TT drive my car this past sunday and he commented that the ride was amazingly comfortable.

This setup would also give you about an inch of drop.

Default

The Abts are pretty comfortable IMO, and have a minimal drop.

Default I have the s-line...I like the stance, it's about 3/4" drop and it ride nice...I didn't want to

lower it too much because I didn't want a harsh ride...s-line is made by audi, so they look like factory parts.

I have Bilstein/Eibach.

Default S-Line Goood...

I added Koni rear shocks, and If I had it to do over again, I would probably just put Koni's on all four corners.

Your Audi parts department can search on, " G98 sport springs," and they should come up with the correct part numbers. Repeat the same for the front struts. The S-Line suspension uses the same rear shocks as your stock suspension.
