Default Will B5 S4 springs fit a regular B5 A4?

I just got an unbelievably sweet deal on a 1996 B5 A4 2.8 5 spd, with a tick over 100k, immaculate condition, and impeccable Emerald Green paint. I won an Ebay auction on S4 springs and I'm wondering if they are a direct swap, the springs came off of a 2k1 B5.

Default Re: lmfao

are you some kind of comedian f3d-NYC? Is it so harmful for me to ask if anyone has done the same swap, and what their experience is? Sorry to have offended you.

Default wow.. you're waaayyy too defensive to post here....

that question gets asked everytime someone buys an A4 and joins the board.

Use the search feature before asking ANY questions. It'll save you a lot of harassment.

Default yes

although the spring rates will be higher because of the weight discrepancy and your car might sit higher than stock height.
