Audi S5 B9 H&R Lowering springs Install

[@meliodasD2]

I'm usually not the biggest Audi fan but it turned out really nice!

[@performance_engineering]

Yea I do agree, looks very smart once lowered 👌

[@klasmvm4966]

Amazing video, this covers just how to do it with the least pain possible. One question though, will this work on a A4 without the factory lowering springs? Will it clear far enough when the springs are 25mm longer?

[@performance_engineering]

Thanks, hope it helps with your install. What I would recommend is, when you have to compress the spring, try and compress it slightly more to take up that extra 25mm then it should allow enough clearance

[@teddiazjr.6223]

Another great video Please post the link for the spring compressor

[@performance_engineering]

@@teddiazjr.6223 glad you enjoyed it. Try this link, good quality springs compressors that don't cost too much - www.sealey.co.uk/product/5637175238/1000kg-2pc-coil-spring-compressor

[@thetruth52772]

Top video mate! Thinking of doing the same to my S5 too. Cheers for the upload

[@performance_engineering]

Glad you enjoyed it. This setup really does look great for the S5

[@brianmcconnachie7400]

Just watched this video good work how much does the h ^r springs lower the car and what size of spacers thanks

[@performance_engineering]

Thanks 👍 they lower the car around 20-30mm and from memory I'm sure there is 12/15mm spacers in this. Hope this helps

[@samituomisto106]

Nice clean videa without all that hassle these usually is on those install videos 👍

[@performance_engineering]

Glad you enjoyed it 😁👍

[@Ok-jf3nr]

This video is nice and chilled 🤟

[@performance_engineering]

😁👍

[@craigkift3134]

Another great vlog nate ❤️

[@performance_engineering]

Cheers Craig. Need to pull my finger out and upload more frequently lol

[@R1Custom]

You mentioned you added spacers, can you recommend them/ or a brand that fits a 2018 Audi A5. Thanks

[@performance_engineering]

Hi. Yes that's not a problem, i supply Bimecc spacer kits on the online shop if your interested in purchasing a set. Www.performance-engineeringltd.co.uk

[@cicliolmo7152]

Top work mate. Do you recall if these were Sport or SuperSport springs ?

[@performance_engineering]

Hi, believe these are the supersports seats on this S5

[@richardalvarez1003]

what size tires you were running . Im scared to rub on 275/35zr20

[@performance_engineering]

From memory it was running the same tyre size and didn't have any rubbing

[@tkendrick1]

Recently used your video to do a install on my 2023 a5. Does this affect adaptive cruise control when getting a fresh alignment ??

[@performance_engineering]

No I don't believe it should effect your cruise control. Maybe run a diagnostic report to see what faults come up

[@dongramlich3331]

Is the process the same as b9 rs5? I do also have the dynamic suspension. Thanks for your advice and excellent video!

[@performance_engineering]

Hi, thanks for the feedback. Yes the RS5 will be very similar if not exactly the same. Thanks

[@johnkim9334]

Wht brand splitter do you have on the front bumper?

[@performance_engineering]

Hi. Not 100% sure but think this was Maxton splitter

[@hlwilliams05]

Do you have torque spec for the different bolts? Bought a set of springs for my car and I’m looking to do it soon, but don’t want anything to come loose

[@performance_engineering]

I don't I'm afraid sorry. All the bolts are very hefty bolts so you will be fine tightening them up as tight as you can.

[@eternal2k4]

How did you remove the orange from your headlights?

[@performance_engineering]

This is how they come from the factory in the UK

[@TheIvan4680]

What number of the spacers you use at the s5

[@performance_engineering]

Used 15 and 12mm for this setup

[@TheIvan4680]

@@performance_engineering 12 on front and 15 on the back

[@performance_engineering]

@@TheIvan4680 yes that's correct

[@Abelsgarage_]

Would this process work on a B9 SQ5 ???

[@performance_engineering]

Process will be very similar for the a SQ5 👍

[@adampacey9380]

Great video! Just curious, did you have to cut bump stops for this install?

[@performance_engineering]

Hi Adam, I don't cut bump stops on any lowering springs install. Either reuse the originals or sometimes H&R supply revised bump stops if required.

[@adampacey9380]

@performance_engineering thanks for the info, and also fantastic video! I've got some H&R springs on the way for my b9 S5 coupe and will definitely use this video for assistance!

[@performance_engineering]

@@adampacey9380 Hi. Great to hear you enjoyed the video. Hopefully it helps you with you install, feedback how you get on 👍

[@JulenAhletic97]

How many inches are the wheels on it? How low is the car after changing them? Thank you!

[@performance_engineering]

Hi believe they are 19s and lowered around 25mm

[@Tangored5]

I'm debating whether I should get the 034 springs or H&R Springs. Which one would you recommend?

[@performance_engineering]

I use H&R on near every vehicle which comes in for lowering springs. 034 will probably give you the same stance but not sure on the ride quality

[@RoadBlockNYC]

Dope video 🔥🔥🔥

[@performance_engineering]

😁👍

[@ryanowens3658]

What kind of spring compressors are you using?

[@performance_engineering]

They are just normal spring compressor mate, can be bought from most motor factors or ebay, amazon

[@alexandruchiaburu5261]

how many mm was the car lowered? 20, 35 or 45? ive picked up 20mm ones for my a4 b9

[@performance_engineering]

It's around 20-25mm over factory

[@keenansealy]

What kind of ramp is that?

[@performance_engineering]

Ramps called a Scissor lift

[@NotMeRiding]

How many inches did it drop the car?

[@performance_engineering]

Around 25mm drop

[@philipmcdonald2]

Good video 👍🏻👍🏻

[@performance_engineering]

Thanks 😁👍

[@romqa5]

Which h&r are this ? Sport or super sport ?

[@performance_engineering]

From memory they was the sports H&R set

[@jonathanbotterill1911]

What size spacers did you fit front and rear

[@performance_engineering]

12 and 15mm used 👍

[@andytran-ry7yc]

any rubbing?
