What is the benefit of having lower control arms. If there is any, which is better adjustable or non-adj. I have a 2000 WS6 A4

I replaced mine a while ago. I noticed a definite difference in the stability of the rear end, especially exiting corners. I went with billet aluminum poly Metco's.

they do definitely strengthen your rear and help increase traction but also if you get the adjustable ones you can move your rear laterally as in north and south if needed. i would also recommend some RLB's for even greater traction so you can adj. the angle of the LCA's... and yes it is even worth it if you have a stock ride height
