Title: A4 Avant lowering, how much??
Post by: timmyg_9 on April 20, 2005, 08:53:05 AM
Hey does anyone know a good place to get my wagon lowered? Putting some 17s on it and just wondering how much i can expect to be paying to get it a little lower, not on its ass but just sitting down better?

In addition though, if i was to buy the springs myself, any idea how much fitment would cost? and who best to take it to? cheers

Rex, from Quadring Performance can get you any performance parts for your A4, his number is the banner at the top of the page, hes a very helpful guy as well.

Just do it properly and get matched springs and shocks or get adjustable coilovers. If you just cut or replace the springs, you're not doing it justice.

$4-500 for springs depending on what you get is pretty average IMHO, maybe less if you shop around. Does the A4 have anything tricky suspension wise or is it all McPherson struts? If there's nothing too hard (time consuming) I would imagine any decent suspension place should knock it over in 2-3 hours.
