I'm not really looking for the stiffness that the Bilstien Sports will give, but I don't want to run into the same issue with the 2" lift that the HD's have.
With a set of '91 Springs, and the Boge shocks will I get the half inch lowering, or do the Boge shocks have the same effect as the HD's on our cars?

i live in providence ri...just like any other new england city, the roads are horrible. my h&r sport/bilstein sport combo is perfectly liveable, honestly i wish it was a bit firmer. when i bought the car it had boges with the h&r sport, and rode like an oldsmobile.

I want something a bit stiffer but living in NE I'm a bit afraid of going race springs and hating the ride.
Plus RI isn't that far away!

I STFA and found a pic of rear perches installed like mine are, and they're upside down, causing the rear wheel arch to be about 4 inches off the tire. That's at least 2, maybe 3 inches more than it used to be before replacing struts. I have a 92 so it was a little lower to begin with, and that's what made me suspect the perches.<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/s4s6/msgs/61325.phtml">https://forums.audiworld.com/s4s6/msgs/61325.phtml</a</li></ul>

I have tried, Bilstein sports(harsh)and HD(harsh and rancho lift kit). Also tried Boges and now I am running Bilstein touring with 92 springs in sedan. I have some Eibachs to install in avant and was thinking about going with the Konis. So, not too harsh? Are you running the reds or yellows

They will provide a little firmer damping than the Boges. When you take the Hd's off try to push them down on the work bench. Then you will see why they lift the car and make it ride so hard. You can hardly even push them down.
