Need reviews on Bilstein suspension kit
Im looking for reviews on a complete suspension kit that includes front struts with springs and back shocks with springs. The car is a CLK 55 w209, I want to get input on ride comfort and how would this set up "fit" a daily driver.

Up front I don't have the answer but I am about to pull the trigger on a bilstein package for my w208 so I'm curious where you sourced the complete package for your 209. If nothing else it would help to make sure I have everything accounted for for my car, e.g. does your package come with spring pads or are you picking those up separately? Thanks.

B8's
I have no idea if you are looking at coilovers but I can say I just scored a brand new pair of front B 8's for $370.
Not sure if I am going to lower or not but the way I smash up my front CF spoiler it might be cheaper

[waveterrorist] How does your car feel now? How would you review it.. [City Rat]
I've got a friend who sells parts that recently he's gotten few new kits from his supplier. It comes with everything you see on the picture

The B8 is intended to work with lowering springs. I have them on my car with Eibach Pro-Kit springs and they're great.

Correct for that reason I am going with B6 set up on my 208. They will work fine with both stock ride height or a mild lowering with the euro spec springs and pads, whenever I can get my hands on a set.
