Hello all!

It's been a while since I've touched any MB, but for my father's retirement, I wanted to surprise him a little with a set of wheels and suspension package... It will be going on 1998 C280. I used to have same year W202 while back, days of the original Benzsport.com with Carlsson suspension and he loved the looks of it...

Just so I get it right the first time (and since I can't find Carlsson anywhere), the looks/height we want to give him would be similar to the car of mbsickness

The part number from H&R for 1998 C280 is 29749-2, #3 pads front are 210 321 03 84 (13 mm), and #3 pads rear 210 325 03 84 (13 mm), and Bilstein sports, and that it, right? (well, aside from a Klann compressor)?

Thank you all in advance!

Regards,
D

The wheels generally came on sport package CLK's and SLK's. 17x7.5 and 17x8.5.

Well, suspension is ordered (from Shox.com). Had Carlsson on W202, FK on W201, Voigtland on my current A4, Eibach on my old Coupe GT, so actually looking forward to see how it rides on H&R... Now we need the wheels!
