for those of you with bilstein sport shocks and h&r springs
either race or sport, how is the ride height and ride comfort? my buddy has a 99 and wants to do suspension. i was giving him options on coilovers vs a good spring shock combo. i've only driven coilovers to where i could get a good feel. so if you guys could help me out, that would be fantastic.
thanks as always

Would be perfect when I get my 18" rims w/40's
<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/56679/dcp_0422.jpg"></center><p>I have bilstein sports and H&R sports. I originally had the non-sport setup and it was wayy to bouncy..but when I switched to the current setup it rides well and I've never bottomed out at all, However, I would like to have less bounce when taking off in 1st and 2nd, but when I get my new tires I believe that will all be gone and it will be the perfect setup for me. I think the race would have prob been too low for my taste, but it just depends on if its a daily driver or a track car. Here's a pic...

Was ok..
Ran Bilsteins with my H&R Sports, and the ride was comfy, reasonably sporty. My personal preference is Koni's, after having seen the light.
If he's a FWD, I may have some Bilsteins available.

I've got H&R Sports with Bilstein - firmer than OEM sport, but still pleasant
A bit harsh in the backseat, but comfy up front.
<b>Handling = awesome.</b>
I had to roll my fenders because I put a custom lower perch setting on my front shocks, look in my pic poster for more pics or ride height, etc. ...
