I was thinking of getting just the MTM springs with the stock shocks. But i'm wondering if it will be low enough. I don't want it too low i want it to look wise and clean. I'm getting 19's.

View Full Version : QUICK-what's the best suspension setup, being ride quality and lowered look, for the money? Imola Ghost 08-14-2003, 04:25 AM I was thinking of getting just the MTM springs with the stock shocks. But i'm wondering if it will be low enough.

I want it to ride almost like stock. EVen thought MTM says these springs are designed to work with the stock springs do you think it will be low enough(clean) and not slammed for 19's rims?

If both cars are the same distance from the ground to the fender, the SUSPENSION on the car with the 235 series tire is actually sitting lower (IE closer to bottoming out).

If your lower control arms are hitting pavement you've got a much bigger problem. Driving Excitement! 08-14-2003, 05:03 PM Unless the S4 bumper and shroud sit lower than an A4.
