[s-cars] S6+ springs - any experiences?

[RubEric at aol.com]

I have the Eibach from Shox.com on my 95 S6 which lowered the car about 1-1/2 
inches w/o spacers.  The ride, with stock shocks, is excellent. I think 
better than with stock springs. I originally installed Bilstien shocks/struts but 
they were very harsh.  The car rode as if it had 75 psi in the tires so I 
reinstalled the stock shocks/struts.

After lowering, the camber was out of spec even with slotted top mounts. I 
was watching the tires for wear but was not looking in the correct place. As a 
result, I shredded the inside shoulders of two SP 9000 down to the belts in 
8,000 miles. I have 18 inch Avus wheels with 235-40x 18 tires and the wider tire 
may have been more vulnerable.

I got the 2 Bennet Camber plates (group purchase - thank you very much) and 4 
new 9000s ($O,uch).  It is too early to evaluate wear but I sure hope that is 
solved.

My thoughts:  The ride, looks and handling with the Eibachs is great, but if 
you're gonna lower an Audi, ya gotta get camber plates!
