H&R's will give you outstanding handling and looks.

Eibach springs will lower your car and give you less handling benefits.

Installing a S8 sway bar will give you better turn in.<ul><li><a href="http://www.audipages.com/Tech_Articles/susp_whls_brake_steer/s8rearswaybar.html">Installing a S8 sway bar</a></li></ul>

Koni oil?

What about S8 springs? Will they work with the bilstein shocks i am buying? Will they lower the car any?

Jkay

H&amp;R coil-over units will both lower the car and firm up the ride. They are height-adjustable, so you can get whatever "look" you want.

Note, tho, that the A8 front bumper is quite low to begin with and catches on curbs and parking lot stops quite easily AS IT IS.

If you lower the car, be extremely aware of where the nose it at all times or you'll end up carrying the entire front of your car home in the back seat, after it tears off. No joke.

Or were they 14 mm, and you were able to force them on?

PaulW

I had to use hand cleaner to lube them and it was a real PITA to get them started again!

I've got 14s to try to use on my 20mm bar.
