Default s4 factory suspension

I have found a full set of original shocks and springs for a 1998-2001 S4 (they have 200 miles) and I want to put them on my 1997 A4. First of all is this possible? and secondly what is the factory spring load for s4's are they 700 lb or less??

I got rid of my stock suspension for $100. $200 seems high for used.
