What do you have your shocks adjusted to? Did you just install them the way they were shipped, or did you give then a couple of "cranks" before they were installed? I'm still on the fence when it comes to coilovers.

Default Really? I thought that they were adjustable, just NOT on the car.

The Stasis ARE adjustable, and I must have assumed that the H&R's were the same.

Default H&R is height adjustable only. the stasis street sport is the

koni A4 kit with both height and rebound adjustment. They preset it up pretty high to deal with increased heft of the S4. FWIW you can buy regular koni A4 sports and turn the dampening up yourself, but i don't think its any cheaper unless you get a deal somewhere.

So I guess that I need to look at the H&R PCS coilovers then. They ARE adjustable.

Except I believe they are $1700 or $1800, might as well get Stasis track sports then.

Yes, but they are only high-speed adjustable.
