Default Vogtland springs

I switched my Eibach springs for a set of Vogtland and let me tell the car feels much better now.

I still handles great but it's now much more comfortable.

I highly recommend this springs.

How much did they raise the car up from the height with the Eibach's installed?

The difference is barely noticeable, the Vogtland kit lowers the car 35mm.

It's better in the back where the Eibacj kit leaves so little suspension travel.

I ran across these springs on an Audi site, purems.com. They're having a big sale on them until the end of the month.
