[s-cars] Opinions on Bilstein/H&R

[Lewis, Gary M]

Hi Chris,
On another listers recommendation, I bought Eibach springs at the Tirerack,
$250.  You'll need the Bilstein sport shocks, and you'll need to get the
rear shocks up a bit (rear springs are 10mm too short).  This can be
accomplished with either cutting new grooves into the shock body (easy), or
buying 10 mm spacers from Eibach (also easy).  I haven't installed them yet,
so I don't have any ride quality comments.

I wanted to go the S6 plus suspension route.  I posted the S6 Plus question
a few weeks ago, but got no response.  I wish I had Daniel Hussey's recent
posted response.  But I got away with an additional $300 in my pocket, so
YMMV.

What is the list's opinion on Bilstein/H&R combo for 95.5 S6 Avant?

I dont want a stiff ride that picks up all the grooves on the road, but I
want
it to be stiffer than stock.

The less I lower the car, the better.

Will Eibach 1529.140 fit the S6 Avant? If so, are these still available and
from where?

In reading the archives and the urs4 site, Eibach seems to dominate the
discussions.

I am trying to decide between Eibach vs. H&R? Any feedback would be
appreciated.

Thanks,
Chris
