Hi all,
I am pretty new to the forum, but have been reading about how no one makes coilovers for w203 4Matics and the only way to go would be to get a pair of H&R lowering sport springs (something I've spoken to many forum members about). But, today I decided to check out the web again, and this time I came across something I haven't seen before. It is a set of "Ksport Coilovers GT Pro Damper System Mercedes Benz C Class AWD 00-07" (link below). Can someone please let me know if these are actually coilovers for my car (w203 c280 4Matic) or am I such a "noob" that I'm totally looking at the wrong thing? Thanks for the help everyone.

easiest way would be to call ksport, They have good customer service, or call them, I personally have never herd that they make anything Coil over for 4matic cars.
Alright...So i just got off the phone with both Ksport and Vivid Racing.
Ksport said -> "If the site says that it is compatible with the AWD model (which it does), then it should fit, they usually are good at making sure their site is up to date"
When I called vividracing, the guy looked the part up and said that it really is made for the AWD model and it should fit. I asked him to please make sure since it is basically unheard of for 4matic owners, he replied by saying Ksport specifically designed it for the w203 4Matic.
So, I'm really hoping that these things are the real deal!!

yeah tbh i didnt even know H&R had a kit for the 4matic, i thought theyre regular kit said it fit the 4matic but really didn't, i thought Vogtland was the only company that made them, but who knows, i hope these coilovers are for real thatd be sweet!

Must get Coilovers!
I was thinking about just going some koni inserts + regular lowering springs, but this would be much better.

Vivid Racing doesn't lie. It's real.

The H&R springs are only available in Germany as of now, so you'd have to get them shipped here, thats why a lot of ppl don't know about them. Regardless though, i'd take coilovers over them any day lolOriginally Posted by 03MBC320

Hey guys,
I am new to the site. My name is Zach, I have a 2003 red c320 4matic.
I recently purchased 18" pvd bremmerkraft wheels and a new set of tires for my vehicle.
But whats relevant to the post is that I just got off the phone with vivid and my order is in. Should be 3-4 weeks before I get them, which is perfect because thats when the snow shouldnt be so bad and Ill get my coils on and wheels too.
Ill post the pictures.

I will let you guys know about the Ksports.. I also just ordered the KSport pro gt kit for my 06 c280 non 4 matic.. can;t beat the adjustable dampening... Barring there are no problems with the install I will post some pics..Before and after maybe...

Bummer guys. I hadnt heard from vivid in a couple weeks and they regretfully informed me that the company who made the brackets for the k sport coils shut their doors and they are no longer available. Anyways, I got as far as putting my wheels on.. I guess Ill roll with some lowering springs soon.
