Just wanted to come on here and say that with my A3, I use your videos as the de facto reference material for mods I plan on doing. Not only are you straight forward, you have a very chill demeanor which is fantastic compared to some of the other KZreadrs with over the top intros and loud obnoxious personalities. The information you show is very concise and you never leave a detail out. You don't hype any particular brand and you stick with what you know. This is the right way to present information and I really appreciate it. I bought my H&R Sports just a couple weeks ago and have been waiting to find time to actually do them. It wasn't until you posted this update video that I was sold on them because this is just proof enough of the results. Once again man, awesome freaking video, love how the car has been turning out over these months and I'm glad to be apart of that journey!

I run with Eibach Sport springs with Bilstein B8 shocks and strut. Stiff enough but with comfort, handles well, and it is very compliant on the road even with the rear sway bars. Yeah I forked over more money with the Bilstein but overall, I'm happy with it.

I bought some oem replacement prebuilt suspension from 1A auto about a year or so ago and I just bought today the H&R sport springs definitely excited to install as soon as they come in

Nice Video... I am about to have abt lowering springs 0.9 in front 0.8 rear which I believe are rebranded H&R. Also got the Abt anti roll bar kit which I believe is rebranded H&R. Just using as my daily ..based the suspension off the Abt TTRS-R model. Thx about the aftermarket strut ? ... I'm thinking of sticking with the springs for a year or two.

Should work well. B8 style shocks are typically designed for lowering springs

I literally got a set of H & R installed yesterday on my 16 A3 premium and it looks great. But do you think it’s ok if I wait until the springs settle before getting an alignment? I just wanna cut cost as best as possible😂.

I have a Q5 and would like to lower it just a bit, but don’t want sacrifice comfort. The stock suspension on Q5 is already stiff enough, maybe too stiff. Also thinking of Eibach. What do you think? Visually I saw that both Eibach and HnR have more spins in the spring, which should theoretically mean they are longer rods and hence softer, but there are also materials hardness and rod thickness that also affect the stiffness

Thanks guys but maybe a second opinion here? Here is the specs found i tech data for each HR and Eibach front/rear: -Wire diam HR 16/13mm - Eibach 16.25/13.75 -coils HR 7/9.4 - Eibach 6.5/8 -untensioned length HR 285/325mm - Eibach 281/328mm -ext diameter HR 144/121mm - Eibach 141/125 -lowering HR 40mm - Eibach 30/25mm So by all specs HR has thinner wire, more twists, larger external diameter, longer untentioned, compresses more. So it seems it should be slightly softer than Eibach?

When should you get alignment? Im getting super sports installed in the next two weeks. I have heard you should get them after 2 weeks because the car will be settled. Im new to this So I thought I asked !
