anyone notice that on a stock suspension setup, the car feels like it is going to flip over when you take a turn, even at slower speeds? do changing the shocks and springs help or do i have to get that eibach anti-roll bar suspension upgrade to alleviate the problem?

 

both

 

anti-roll bars usually are the best bang for the buck upgrade to reduce body roll... shocks and springs help too...but they cost more and generally contribute more to a stiffer/harsher ride...

 

how much cheaper? im looking at the eibach anti-roll kit compared with bilstein shocks and h&r springs and the kit is only about $50 cheaper.

 

i'm considering lowering my car. how much are the shocks and springs gonna cost u.

 

the whole deal with installation for springs and shocks should be $700-800.

 

I have the AMG "middle" suspension designed specifically for the W202 four cylinder cars, and it's outstanding. It was about $1600CDN (about $1100US) and has increased the handling considerably with barely any sacrifice in ride.

Highly recommended by me.

 

hi blackmercedes,
can u describe the "middle" suspension in more detail? what does this comprise? springs, shocks, pads? do u have any part numbers? thanks!

 

A simple H&R or Eibach spring with Bilstein sport shock upgrade will drastically improve the handling characteristics of the car. I do not find it uncomfortably harsh at all.

You can often times find springs on ebay for less than 100 us dollars.

 

cool, im waiting until summer to do all this.
