HR sport springs
sport shocks (billy shorts will do)
Search the forums and make your own rear camber kit for less than $100
Get the bolts from MB to adjust the front $20.
Spring pads from MB will put you where you want exactly, those are like $50

Where did you get the rs reps from? what are the offsets? Staggered? How much did you pay? BBS on the caps?

Mercedes C220 CDI S202
Question Mercedes C220 CDI W202 vibration while braking

Hi guys, maybe i am a bit off this theme but I have problem with my car, when i start to brake from higher speeds on highway.
I am proud 3rd owner of Mercedes C220 CDI T-model W202 with 324.000 km on the clock totally original ( original turbo everything ). I love how Mercedes rides, and the fuel consumption that i am getting from it in town and on highway.
Yesterday I was driving on highway at around 120 Km/h,while braking i started to feel vibration on my left foot, steering wheel and the whole car was vibrating until i stopped. The car have stock alloy wheels 195/65/15 with brand new balanced tires. I own this car for like 2 weeks now.
Can any one help me. No signal light on.
First thing that came to my mind is front disc brakes that are gone and need to be replaced. But when i did small research i started to read other things like front bushes, curved rim etc.
Vibration can be feel just on hard braking on motorway while in town you can't. I will try to make a video as fast as i can, so it will be more visual.
Please guys help i do a lot of Kms on highway every day.
Sorry if my English is not correct because English is not my first language. :surrender: :surrender:

Nice car!

It's the rotors if it only shakes during braking. Fix it ASAP.

The other stuff you mentioned, rims, suspension, etc., will vibrate at high and/or low speeds whether you are braking or not.

Post some pictures after you put on the new rims.

I am still waiting for the rims, i ordered them from Stanced UK. Will post pictures as soon as i get them, if i get them at all.

I found some cheap TA-Technix coilover kits from German eBay, but they are all for model years 1996 and up. Was there something changed in 96 about the suspension or why couldnt i fit them on my 94 C180?
