Springs - H&R or Eibach

Looking for a bit of advice, car now running spacers and looks great but I do want to fit springs.

Trying to decide between these 2 options. H&R Sport gives a bigger drop than the Eibach pro kit but apparently Eibach rides better.

I came from an 8v RS3 which rode brilliantly (strange for audi) so the m4 is quite bumpy compared to that. Looks wise I prefer the H&Rs. Can someone thats had these fitted tell me how they are compared to stock ride wise?

I have a set of Eibach looking for a new home that have 3000 miles on them. Great springs and 3 of us were running them but I want to go with a new HAS setup.

Mate, I literally just read your post on Ades thread and was about to comment

Is there a reason why you are looking to move onto the KW kit?

Also, how much are you looking for in regards to the springs? I am in Glasgow

My car is a project and things keep changing on it, not sure if you have seen it?
I thought £160 was a fair price.

I have, you certainly don't do things by halves! how was the ride compared to standard?

I can get these brand new for £144 delivered so would be looking for a better price

The ride was great and looked perfect in my view. I would go with that price it is £90 less than advertised. Best I would do is £130

I wouldn't go H&R on these cars, they don't seem to have got it quite right.

Go for Denso's eibachs mate!

Looks even better on ACS springs

Weird how the coupe sits higher than the saloon, can't get my head round that one.

The dealer just phoned me this morning they are expecting the exhaust either at the end of this week or early next week, so it'll be next week sometime hopefully!

Sorry mate can't do £115 but will do £125 and that's my final price. I can give them to you first week in April after the new suspension is fitted.
