    They're great! This sway bar kit is really beefy and it hold the car on rails. Very nice kit. No squeaking from what I can tell

    Used to have:
    H&R's cut one coil front, #1 pads all around - was tucking but after repainting bottom lip, I said no more. Lifting the car.

    97 C280

    H&R Cup Kit.

    Somehow I like this setup better than the H&R/Bilstein combo.

    I'm running the stock AMG Bilstein sport shocks, with H&R springs. OEM swaybars. Recently added the rear Wiechers trunk strutbar as well. #1 pads all around.

    I will like to consider replacing my bushings to accomodate the lower and stiffer setup, and hopefully replace my steering damper soon as i think it is shot, as well as go with appropriate Bilstein shocks to match the H&R setup better.

    Anyone know of a front strutbar that fits a 97 C36? The crosspipe in the center is too big for the Wiechers

    I'm trying to get front and rear set for a c36 and v6 c280 for a few folks. I'll let everyone knows how it pans out.

    I have H&R sport springs with bilstein shocks. I also have the fron eibach sway bar, but I just havent found the time to install the rear one. From what I hear, the rear sway is really difficult to install.
