Looking to upgrade but don't want an unlivable ride, plus I know lots of you guys run this setup so I thought I would ask. I didn't find what I was looking for with the search.

very stiffer

In a good way.

The ride is definately tighter and stiffer but not uncomfortably so. And the ride height differance is just perfect for me.

Last year I put a set of Vogtland sport springs and Bilstein sport shocks on a 98 A4 and I felt that ride was too stiff for my tastes..... take that for what it is worth but for sure the setup on my S4 is softer.

good to hear thank you!

I had Bilstein Sports with Eibach springs on my 95 S6. This is a non-tracked car. The ride was very harsh - as if I had 100 psi in the tires. I removed the Bilsteins after about 1500 miles and installed the OE shocks and struts. Ride with OE shocks/struts and the Eibachs is wonderful.

but I would think the OE shocks could not control the stiffness of the eibach - which is obviously stiffer than the OE springs.

So you don't bottom out at all?

EricAl

I THINK(!) the Eibachs are not much stiffer than the OE springs - just lower - and the OE shocks/struts control them adequately. In any case, I do not bottom and the car is very comfortable.

For this exact reason I had my Bilsteins re-valved to match H&R's

Now it's stiff, but good. Balanced. There is no "kick" on rebound.
