Question What are the stock pads on the C280 Sport?

Found a shop to lower and align for $550 so I'm going with it. The question
I have is: Does anyone know the stock pads (#s) front and back installed from the factory? Right now the front looks to sit a little higher than the
rear. I went and picked up #2 pads for both front and back thinking it will
sit just right with the H&Rs (I think it's suppose to lower front by 1.3" and
rear 1.2"). Thanks for any info.

All cars (even if it the same model and year) sit differently, and have different # pads. For example, I have had two C220's (both '94's) and the first one had #3 fron, #2 back, the one I have now has #2 front #1 back
