Lower suspension on C230K with C7?
As I was browsing the MB offical web site for other countries, I noticed some of the sites stated the suspension on Evolution or C7 package have lowered suspension on all four corners. (front by 15mm, rear by 5mm). Is this true, for the C7 in US and Canada?

I was wondering if you could lower the car simply by changing the rubber shim perch?
The back of my GF's C230K is low enough, but the front is a little high.
We are looking to lower it maybe .5"
Anyone think changing the rubber shim perch in the front will make a significant difference?

Since the front suspension of the W203 C-class cars is a Macphereson strut design, there are no rubber shim perches in the front.
I have heard that all US coupes have the slightly lower suspension of the Euro Evolution package, but I'm not 100% certain.
