H&R OE springs

Was wondering if anyone has changed the springs in their S5. Was curious about the ride afterwards. I want to get the 1" lower look, but don't want to stiffen the ride up.

Get coilovers so you can set the ride height just where you want it.
Here is mine....

What upgrades are available out there for the money...I love the look of the S5 but it's weight definitely robs it of some decent speed...

How is the ride with the coil overs? Car looks great. How hard is it to adjust the height?

Hey there!

I would suggest going with the H&R Sport Springs... They give it a 1.3" Drop in the front and 1.25" drop in the rear. We have installed countless sets of these and they are fantastic. The ride is a bit stiffer but that is to be expected when lowering a car but it is NOT at all unbearable. You will be more than happy with it. PM me for special pricing

Here is an image of one of the S5's we built using the H&R Sport Springs and 20" OEM Audi S5 Euro-Spec Wheels using 15mm H&R Spacers.





To get a better idea of it on OEM Wheels... Here you go
