I am a big fan of teh Vogtlands since i had them on my Project S4 Avant car. My wife drove through and post pregnancy with these without complaints. At the same time they made the S4 feel much more buttoned down.<ul><li><a href="http://www.startupracing.com/B5ProductsSuspension.htm">Free Shipping here.</a></li></ul>

How well suited are the Vogtlands for the A4? I understand that the spring rates are the same.

Default I should have mine on by Friday...

I'll let you know how they feel. They could be a little stiffer since the A4 weighs less.

Default That's what I'm thinking

The S4 is a lot heavier up front, so the springs could feel stiffer on an A4. I'm leaning towards the Vogtlands because they seem to be the best price/performance wise. So long as they're not teeth-shattering rough.

Default Tomasz, How do the PSS9 compare to the Vogtland?

I want to upgrade from my H&amp;R race/bilstein

Is the adjustable and rebounding worth it?
What are the spring rates for the PSS9?
