I was thinking about going for the Shocks/Springs combo, but saw some Tein Basics coilovers with <5,000 miles on them for a couple hundred less.

I can personally attest that they are practically new, they have legitimately only been on the car for like 6 months give or take. He has it set as a nice ride height, and they handle beaufifully, but he has a kit that is a little low so iirc that is why he is getting rid of them. But he's a good kid, I'm over at his house every couple of weeks. I would do it. They're like brand new. Plus I could come watch the install.

I bought a set of used H&R coilovers from another AWer, they were less than a year old and less than 10k miles on them. I bought them for about 2/5 the retail price, so why the hell not?
That was my previous car (2.7T), but this time around I am buying NEW since nobody seems to be selling used Bilstein PSS9s for the A6.

Hopefully I will be pulling the trigger on some suspension within the next week or so. Will let you know the outcome.
