Default Stock 92 springs with Bilstein sports?

Has anyone run this combo before? I wanted to use H&R springs but I'm worried about ground clearance. I'm thinking that with 17" wheels with just the 92 springs, the stance should look pretty good.

but it works for me.

Default quattro.pilot - is that the setup in the pic in your sig?

if so, it looks pretty good. 17" wheels right?

Yes to the suspension, and Yes to the wheel size.

Why not HDs? Sports are for lowering springs, HDs for stock. They both have the same rate.

So would the Sports ride better than the HD's? What's the price difference?

Default go with the Sports... if I had to guess I'd almost bet the HDs will add a little rancho to your look

...and the 92 springs are shorter than 93-97
