Anywhere that sells Mercedes parts. The whole setup front and rear will run $4k or so for all new parts.

if you dont plan on adjusting your ride height I'd say go with springs and good struts or order or find a set of 2005+ SS springs and struts. You can find them pretty cheap in the classifieds for less than 200. The SS suspension is lower than the C32 suspension.

the SS suspension will give you a really good drop but still give you OEM comfort but little stiffer spring so it'll handle better.

you just gotta memorize the roads and all the potholes hahaha thats what I do. Sometimes I gotta take the long way because my cars so low and I know i'm going to rip my lip off lol You might as well drop it low now so you can get used to the driving with the car being lowered.

haha, if i was still at home in washington it wouldn't be a big deal cause i knew all the roads. it's a diff story down here though. and thanks, those are the wheels that were on it when i bought it, they were beat though. bent and rusted, lol. i picked up the 20's for cheap so i had something to drive on. they're starting to grow on me though, so idk what will happen. and thanks, i'm actually on my way to becoming a BMW tech. and this is my husbands car..

thanks! it's been our project car for a few years now. engine just got stroked out to a 4.07L, getting a twin pump assembly as well at the moment. then swapping the GT28 turbos for some 35s.

and they shouldn't, arrowhead dealer and the other Mercedes shop down here said i could drop the front an inch without any worries. not looking to go much lower than that right now anyways.
