AMG sounds close to stock, go Carlsson

TEIN is an affordable coilover, but it depends on what you're willing to spend.

It depends what you mean by "better". If you prefer a quiet, almost stock sound, go with AMG. Otherwise, Carlsson... but there are alot more options out there and I suggest you search the forum and do your homework before making your decision.

As far as I know, there is no TEIN Euro Damper fitment for W203. Last I heard, only Basic and Superstreet were available for our cars.

The TEIN Basics come with everything you need bro (springs/shocks). Check the picture in my sig...rears are all the way down and fronts can still go a bit lower.
