Can I get away with just lowering springs with current C204 suspension set up?
How do you feel about the suspension of your vehicle?

I would like to lower my car but I am not sure if I can get away with just lowering springs. No track driving, just day to day driving and avoiding potholes. I will also upgrade to 19s at some point after it's been lowered.

Thanks for the advice.

If you own the car be prepared to incur the costs of using just springs with no additional changes. If youre leasing for a short term just make sure you get spring pads.
