The True OG Modded out W203
If you want a nice significant drive w/pretty good ride quality then go H&R. If you want a SMALL drop AND maintain ALMOST stock ride quality then go Eibach.

Personally, I dont like H&R springs. I would recommend you to get Brabus springs.

I have the Eibach, average drop is 0.75" to 1" and the ride is noticeably stiffer than stock.

C230 Sport Coup + 2006 W164 ML350 + 99 Ford Escort (What the heck, it gets 38 mpg!)
Vogtlands are about 1" drop,
ride good, stiffer, and don't effect camber much so no wearing tires out. Prolly close to Eibach's.
229 including shipping, last I looked from Pure Motorsport in CA.
