how long for springs to set?
i just installed my H&R cup kit on my c230 and i find that it didn't lower that much more then stock. How long do you think its going to take for the springs to actualy set in their real drop? 2 or 3 days? or it won't go lower then this?

I would say it probably takes a few hundred miles or couple of weeks for the suspension to fully settle down. After that, do an alignment.
