and finally 8897 sits to where it wants hahaa
this is what i did after 5 month searching for new wheels,
running on vogue forged v-10 with 18x9-10 with +15 offset all around
wrapped in 215/40 and 225/40 tires
lower than ever
new OEM facelift headlamp, fogs and side mirror lamp
OEM Brabus illuminated door enterence panels
still on searching OEM trunk lid, so hard to find the genuine one
on the alignment, the guy said "isn't it too low??, talking to myself, isn't it still high compare to others in US" lols
see the sticker? yes this is how i do it
this is my driveway, still safe
more loving the way she looks plus all the usdm parts on it
I hope you guys like it, like the way i like it

Nice drop. Looks like the rear can go lower. Do you have #1 pads in the rear. I don't think I'd survive your driveway lol I barely survive mine then I scrap my bolts holding the cf lip on when I pull into the street. I'll have to post pics of my room I have. I'm gonna see if I can do some grinding in the front to get it lower even more. My windshield washer reservoir suffers too, it leaks a bit now because of the bumps making it loose do I have to get some sealer to make it snug again.

urs are super low compared to mine with plus the amg kit and carlsson lips spoiler man
always use #1 pads even if std:P, and don't thinking about lower it more cause it's already max cut on h&r, already bouncing lol, have to find another stiffer spring ftw, maybe wannna try w211 original spring, friend say it's stiffer in w203

Looks awesome! Thats pretty damn low!
I swear, some day us w203 folks are gonna find a way to relocate or delete this damn thing. If it werent for this damn reservoir, replacing the driver side fog would be easy AND, more importantly, we could probably fit wider wheels...

I'm going to see if other models have small reservoir so it at least sits higher. Going to see if going with 12mm spacers up front will clear the wheel rubbing the spring so I can go a tad lower.

looks great!!
i love to see w203 on 10" rear wheels, gives the car a really mad look hehe
but one thing...your car just have H&R springs? How do you get so low? How it rides? (is it comfortable?)

running that low, dont think about comfy, imho it rides ok, not that stiff..
but dont ask how it rides compare to c/o, never been on c/o in whole life, maybe c/o is better hahaa

my car has Weitec springs -6cm at front(pressed/comprimid, dont know how to say in english) and -3 at rear with smaller rubber pads..
so, it is low, but if it could go even lower it was better
I'm riding on 17"..so it is close to the ground, but have 7cm wheel gap..

time to move on to c240 carlsson..
the c200 has been sold, so sad to let it go.. you'll be missed, be good to your new owner,
and i've been lucky, one of my friends asked me to do a photo shoot for his portfolio, so i got 1 last good time with her before it's sold
