[s-cars] S-CAR-List Digest, Vol 30, Issue 5

[Sam Clarkson]

Can I please go back to basics?
I want to respring and shock my 93 S4 Avant. I have read a lot about  
springs, heights etc. I do NOT want to lower my car at all as I drive  
in real snow in winter. My question is what is the standard height  
and where is it measured?
