I have 18 inch mono block II and I just lowered my 00 C230 Kompressor with H&R springs. The front wheels are 18-8 with 225/40 size tires. I'm rubbing on the front edge of fender right where the bumper molding meets. I allready installed the thickest oem spring pad and it is still hitting. I need a fix, it looks killer lowered and I would hate to put stock springs back in.

Roll your fenders or also install shocks from Bilstein.

Then it will never rub. I have the same 99 c230k too thats lowered with hr and bilstein shocks. The ride is very nice.
