Sorry, I should have been more specific. Thats what I get when I
log in first thing in the morning. I wish I had a ur-Quattro but its just
the '87 4000q(should have used the lower case q in original post).
Anyway, the story is this. They have a four struts they sell as a set. The
struts are bilstein front and koni rear, the konis are not externaly adjustable.I am also getting the Eibach spring set. I am concenrned about the stiffness
of the bilsteins on the front. The minnesota roads are anything but smooth.
Are the bilsteins going to be to stiff? This car is a daily commuter so I
don't want to loose any teeth on the way to work!
Thanks again for the input...
