Default no, same rates but euros should lower the car aprox 20mm

I've got them in a box waiting for a chance to install.

Default Can you check the paint marks? I 'm trying to figure out

which euro-spec model they are spec'd for. I have a hunch its the S6 Plus.

Default not the ones I've seen...

I've also compared measurements with s6's that had the 92 springs put on - very little difference (5mm) compared with my stock (not for long) 95.5. There may be some difference with the shocks?
I've herd and read "slightly lower" - but have never been able to confirm this - Ant the direct comparison with 2 95.5 s6's
1) OEM and bilstein HD's
2) 92 s4 springs with bilstein HD's
had the 2nd aprox 5mm lower measuring from the center of the wheel to the wheel arch.
The OEM sports are reportedly 20 mm lower than stock (95.5). In europe the 92 as all the urS's was available in the standard (came to N.A.) and the sport - which we never saw.
I have been unable to confirm if the 92 sport springs were different than the 93-97.
anyway...
