Default 2000 Audi A4 sport suspension

Is the suspension lower on the sport package for a 2000 A4?

I have sport suspension and it sure seems a little lower than a stock a4. I think it's minor, about .5"?

SS has red shocks.

Default Its definintely lower!

I have a 96 a4 quattro and i did that to my car. I had the stock a4 suspension and i installed the 2000 a4 sport springs. I dont know what people are talking about when they say it doesnt lower it that much. It dropped my car a good 1.25 inches i would say. Before the install i had almost 5 finger gap from well to tire. Now theres only about 3 finger gap. There is a 30mm difference from stock a4 to sport spring

Noway 1.25 inches is correct, it was part of the sport package spec of post 98 A4's, it's 20mm or about 0.75 inches.

I did it on my 96 A4 and measured it before and after. 19-21mm all round.

Even H + R sport springs lower only 1.25 inches.
