cheaper than other brands?

I could get the coilovers for my b6 a4 about 1300 installed. pretty cheap compared to other brands like tein, stasis...etc

Ya they are cheaper but i think they are also pretty forgiving to someone who drives alot. They lower the car, give it a better stance and a more agressive look. They also drive very nice, you feel everything but if you hit a big bump your not going to feel it as much as i youhad coilovers. I would by no means say they are the best (coilovers definitly are) but when it comes to just springs, they do there job very very well.

is there any options for lowering the car but keeping more or less the factory ride?? I wouldn't mind having my car lower for the summer months and dressing it up with a set of 18's, but as its a daily driver not really looking for a rock solid sport ride. Got a car for that already, haha.

i dont really care if you understand or not, i didnt post this thread to educate you and explain what i want to do and why i want to do it, but i will anyhow.

1) Eibach is not a bad brand
2) Some people like the handling perspective of sport suspension, i am fine with the way the car is right now, but if i can lower the center of gravity further...hey why not
3) You said "you spend money"...its not like a drive an RS4 or even an S4, how much money do you think i spent on the car?
4) mind your own business. i wasnt really asking for your opinion, just some pictures so i get an idea.

To answer your question Sonic, i dont think even this guy knows what he is saying
