B5 S4 Spring/Strut DIY Install:
s4mods.com/b5-c...
The time is finally here! We install the Bilstein B8 sport shocks matched up with the H&R Sport Springs. The installation was relatively easy, but came with some annoyances (very tight areas to unbolt control arms/corrosion). The B5S4 looks incredible now! Don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe! Thanks for watching!

Nothin' wrong with a little Rub boys 😎
Boost Book I think you should get 35 mm sidewall
225 35 18
I run the same setup, its a bit too low at times in the front , but ended up rolling the front fenders w an ebay knockoff tool of the eastwood one, helped alot at full lock turns and saved the sidewalls from getting chewed up.
Watched a few of your videos so far. I had an B5 A4 but it was a 2.4 V6 and a great car. I have a fondness for the B5 and still watch videos on them. Your S4 looks awesome. Keep up the good work!
Great vid guy. Can't wait to see it in person and I will be doing headers and down pipes soon.
I've got yellow 17z brembos with black wheels on silver and love it.
Looks really good! Perfect height with the wheels.
Car looks 100000x better, good job.
Nothing like working on these cars yourself. Yes, they're German .. but not rocket science.
Any plans for Stage 3?
A nice different shade of yellow could look good and some 034 sway bar links front and back would make it even better ride ... I got the same set up on mines and good sway links feels pretty good more enjoyable
I'm glad for you! I bit low for my tastes as I have experienced substantial rub through on the paint with such springs; I run coil overs to get about a 10 mm drop so as to avoid rubbing. What are you running for wheels? 235/35 R19s or 235/40 R18s? With 235s you might be running into real rub issues with spacers. As was mentioned below, I would run 17z or 18zs for brakes. I run the 17zs which is a 6 piston Brembo caliper off a Tuareg/Cayenne/Q7 from around 2006 it works with a ~335mm rotor. The 18z works with ~355mm rotors but requires an 18" wheel. There are kits online for the bolts you need to bolt up these calipers. The 17z are about $175 each at your local parts store for the plain Tuareg version you can by quality rotors for maybe $70 of a few different cars; I run rotors off a ~2006 Volvo V70R. With these rotors you need to drill out the lug holes to ~1" to accommodate the bolts but that is it.
Yellow Calipers, and tinted windows 😎
Don't you have to get adjustable control arms for the front? I have the same set up on my 01 s4 and needed 034 adjustable control arms because the camber was off. Stock can't adjust enough to avoid tire wear.
Wheel spacers would really tie this together
The portable spring compressors are completely safe. I've been using them for years. As a matter of fact Scotty kilmer says he believes they are safer than the wall mounted units and uses them exclusively.
great video Boost book! looks like the perfect height.
How long did it take you to install the springs? Took me about 10 hours..
How do you not mess up your rims when you take them off that way ?
I only put a very slight amount of pressure (with plenty of room between my ratchet and wheels) until the bolt cracks a little bit. They were extremely tight for some reason. I usually just impact them off but this time I had to stand on the breaker bar.
Clean
Yellow calipers would look good as well. Definitely Lamborghini esk.
What specs are you running on those wheels?
Why didnt you get coilovers?
solowerks makes some decently priced coilovers
Not sure if they're comparable in quality to KW or Bilstein
"Incredible amount of money on coilovers" and "BC/H&R" in the same sentence?
Lamborghini yellow
Not the proper way to do it. You only have to take all 3 bolts from top and the long ass bolt from upper control arms and at last the suspension bolt at the bottom. Much easier that way...
Need to get rid of that fishbowl look my man
