Suspension Compatibility ???

Asking for a friend... Will an aftermarket suspension from a TT/C4S fit a C4 (Narrow) without any modifications ?

Anyone ?

well, TT suspension=C4S suspension=C4 suspension, so maybe??? but i'd stick with suspension directly compatible with your car...

What do you mean by suspension...springs & shocks? hubs, brakes, carriers?
Control Arms?

They are different in lots of little ways....the TT suspension will have different springs for the added weight...etc...the hubs and carriers are different on the C4S and TT for the bigger brakes...etc...

pss9 TT/C4 is the same according to the guys at shox.com. Im not so sure though cause the TT's are heavier, therefore stiffer, but this should be good for the C4 since pss9 tend to be a litle soft and have the adjustablility anyway, IMHO. But mechanically, it should fit, adjust no problem.
