Hi all :)
Im looking at springs to replace the stock units in my all stock 99 C43 AMG, im not overly happy with the handling as it is and I know from experience with my other W202 ( 95 C180 ) that its capable of a hell of a lot better ( having said that, it IS better than my C180 in handling, but not enough for my liking ). Id say the bushings are abit worn out, I planted it going onto a highway today and had the back end feel as though it moved around slightly as I accelerated, the road was dry and its got 3 week old Michelin Pilot Sport 255s on the back, so it sure as hell wasn't spinning the wheels.
Im going to do the bushings as well, im looking to get a full set of poly bushings for it if I can, if anyone can recommend something good, id be happy with that :)
So I did a real quick search, and I came up with these:

I might throw in a set of KONI externally adjustable shocks too if those are available for a C43, if anyone can recommend them of something very simular would be great.
Thanks in advance :)
