Dropped My Car this Morning
Finally had the time to drop my car. It was a hard month riding like a SUV 
I couldnt take any turns because it felt like a boat. Now i can take corners like no other ! Let me know what you guys think. I think it was tastefully dropped but im open to opinions.

They are:
DPE R16's
19x8 w/pirelli pzeros
19x10 w pirelli p zeros
The fenders just touch the tires,so i think that was my ideal goal. I reached it.

I am dropped on H&R springs. 2 inch in the front and 2.25 in the rear. I rolled the fenders but they still rub. I need to go back next week and redo them. Thanks guys!

what's the part number on those H&R springs??? most of the people here get the tucked look on the rears and at least a 2 finger gap space in the fronts from what I read so they end up cutting some coils in the front to even out the gaps. Is your car a 230 or 320 because I think engine size makes a difference as well. I want to lower my car tool but I have a c230...if I can get the same drop then that'll be sweet, thanks.

You know what? Im not sure if there is a lost of power,but i can tell you its more fun to drive. It may be a pain,but i really like the feel. This wasnt a C32 so power was not my concern. It just makes the car so much nicer.
I just need a c55 spoiler and some amg quad exhaust and ill call it a day.

kenzmbz, hey thanks, if you can find out the part number and maybe where you got it from that would help. Just one last question, how big is the gap (if any) is it in the front? You can pm me if you want, thanks again man, your ride is really sweet. I can't wait till you get your quad exhaust, I'm debating whether to get a dual exhaust myself.
