Dear listers

Well, I'm finally back in an Audi (hooray!) after going without one for 4 y=
ears.  Purchased a '94 S4 (Pearl White/Black leather) from KAR of MN.  It a=
rrived by truck here in Denver last Saturday, and I'm happy to say it was a=
s described.  Not flawless, but at 48k miles, pretty close.

Now I need some advice from those of you who have BTDT.  The car is lowered=
 with ABT springs.  Looks great with its 17" wheels, but has two problems r=
elated to our rain dips, speed bumps and potholes.  One, it simply doesn't =
have enough clearance for the front air dam.  I've been extremely careful a=
nd have already scraped (slightly) the front twice on mild rain dips (conca=
ve depressions at intersections).

Problem #2 is too stiff a ride for the conditions named above, especially p=
otholes -- which we seem to have in abundance year-round in the Denver area.

Sooooooooo -- I would like to know if there are springs available that woul=
d raise the S4 a bit without going all the way to stock springs.  Or any ot=
her suggestions you may have to address the clearance and stiffness issues.

Also, anyone want to trade for or purchase my ABT springs?

Thanks in advance for your replies.
