    96+ springs for a 95

    Hey, i just purchased a set of 96+ eibach pro kit and planning to put it on my 95 c280. Has anyone tried doing this? And do i have to change my pads to a w210?

    It depends on how low you wanna go. Check your pads first then decide if u want to go thinner front or rear.

    It doesn't matter what year the car is, as long as it's the right spring - (4 cyl., 6 cyl., etc.)

    mid 1996 the springs and pads changed!

    Pre 96 the pads were from the w201, post 96 they were w210 pads. Remember Koolvin's comedic spring/pad problem? We learned that if you get springs from the wrong year, all you have to do is match them with pads from the wrong year too and it all works fine

    I stand corrected!
