yeah im guessing an inch drop shouldn't run me around 1200. but then again it doesn't matter to me. so what springs do you recommend? comfort is the key...

S4

It's going to be the closest to Adui comfort you're going to get and they don't run that much...

Very doubtful that a rear S4 suspension will work on a fwd car. For your case, look at H&R sport springs (about a 1.3" drop). Nice ride, some drop, and not too much money.

And for the record the S4 springs drop you about a fingerwidth max (personal experience).

im looking at the h&r sport spring kit on ecstuning. pretty cheap.. about 200 dollars. so with a 1.3" drop can still have the comfort benefits that my stock springs deliver? are these the best springs i can get with a comfortable ride in mind? i wouldn't mind paying more.
