Nice price on a coilover set for an RS6 or maybe 4.2/S6 but...
I could not find any documentation anywhere on the internet verifying that Eibach makes a Pro-Street coilover set for the RS6. There is a part number on the auction but no RS6 is listed in the application guide on Eibach's website.
I was trying to determine if they might fit the 4.2/S6. I guess any interested buyers could email Eibach directly. From what Ive heard PSS9s fit the RS6 and 4.2 in the same application, so there may be a chance of compatability.
I am not affiliated with this auction in any way, btw.<ul><li><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Eibach-Springs-Audi-RS6-Coil-Over-Kit_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33586QQihZ019QQitem Z8069703060QQrdZ1#ebayphotohosting">http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Eibach-Springs-Audi-RS6-Coil-Over-Kit_W0QQcmdZViewI

but another set is relisted
Actually, Im not sure if the first set was purchased using "buy it now" or the seller just relisted the item making changes to the ad. Doesn't ebay normally tell you if the item was bought with "buy it now?"<ul><li><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=8072579735">http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=8072579735</a</li></ul>

I've been watching those too...
But I also could not locate documentation on the Eibach website (and others) about them. If they don't fit the 4.2 (and seeing how different the RS6 suspension is from ours, I doubt they do), I bet they'd be tough to re-sell.

I also found them available in the CLOSEOUT section
of shox.com. Maybe they can provide more info. Regardless, the relisting no longer has the buy it now option since someone has bid on them. Strange that someone would bid with 9 days left in an auction, when the buy-it-now was only $25 more. hmmm.... Any interested buyers now probably wont get such an awesome deal as the initial buy-it-now.
Funny, shox.com has them in the closeout section. No wonder they end up in the bargain bin when not even Eibach lists them in any of their application guides.<ul><li><a href="http://www.shox.com/appguide/shoxshop/cproductsdisplay.php">http://www.shox.com/appguide/shoxshop/cproductsdisplay.php</a</li></ul>

People may disagree with me...
but I would guess yes. However, once you buy them and install them, if they dont fit properly you are already up to H&R coilover prices with the money wasted on the install.
Without a definative answer on compatability, I guess youre taking a big chance...unless you are doing the install yourself.
