    Lowering springs

    I am thinking about lowering my 2000 C280 and I was wondering what were some good companies to go to? Just wanted to know the ride of some spring that you guys have put on. Respond with some info on springs. Thanks.

    H&R

    Eibach

    Brabus

    Volgtland

    if you get springs you need shocks also

    Koni or bilstien will work

    or you can get the Shock/Spring combo the H&R CUP KIT.

    these are said to be progressive ... all the others a fixed spring rate. I wish spring manufacturers published their spring rate values. [!!!]

    I cannot speak for the rest of them, but I know that your stock ones, Vogtland, and H&R are for sure progressive springs.

    BTW, CKlasse ... did I read correctly a few weeks back? You're not producing the C43 exhaust anymore?

    Sorry dude, my Eibach's are progressive.
    Yes, I have a few mods, but they\'re so discrete, my wife hasn\'t noticed them.

    Nah. We are doing mostly the new SLKs, Cs, Es, CLKs, and some SLs. But again, I wouldn't refuse any orders, I simply don't stock them anymore.
