Some pictures I came across from this spring. These are before I had the Eibach Pro-Kit Plus installed and before my taillight black trim mod.

Thanks! Other than the backup camera, the rims are my favorite addition so far.

Not yet, waiting for them to settle a bit. Just had them put on this past weekend (along with the anti-sway bars) and have only seen about 1/4" drop so far, but I'm only expecting about a 1/2" drop with these springs.

They are not required here in the US but some countries, as I understand it, require them with larger wheels. Your car looks great btw

I see, how do you like the ride and handling of the Eibach kit so far? How much work was it to put the rear sway bar on? Thanks.

The sway bars make a HUGE difference. Night and day. I wish I would of done it day one! The ride quality doesn't seem to of changed at all yet but I'm sure as the springs settle it will be a little more harsh over bumps.

The rear sounded like a pain. You have to lower the rear sub-frame a few inches. No way around it.

Cool. When I was putting on my AMG wheels 2 weeks ago, I took a look at the stock front sway bar and it looked fairly big, but the rear one looked tiny.

I'm going to be installing (on my own) my Eibach springs in the next day or two. I just hope I get a decent drop, at least in the front because the front seems higher than the rear right now.

You should get about a 1/2" drop over stock with the Eibach set. If you want more than that, like a good 3/4" then think about H&R Sports and thinner spring pads in the rear. The H&R Sports should lower the front an extra .2" (compared to the Eibach set) and the rear are the same so using a thinner spring pad will lower the back to match the front.

Looks good. Has the drop settled for you yet? Did you change the spring pads or not? I'm starting to wonder if I should of changed them out to get a few extra mm of drop in the back...

Well, I'm at 486 miles (and 3 weeks) now so I think it has settled by now. The rear pads are #4 (17mm) which gives the car a slight rake. I'm glad I didn't reinstall the #2 (9mm) pads because the front would have had more gap than the rear. The gap is a tiny bit more in the rear which is what I wanted. I'm content with the drop and handling.

What size pad did your C350 come with from the factory? Does your rear have more gap than your front?

Thanks! Those rims are 17" 6-twin-spoke stock AMG wheels. Where I'm from, two rim options are available with the AMG sports package: the standard 18" 5-twin-spoke AMG wheels that are often seen in C350s in the US and the other are the 17" rims seen in my photos. They're the 2010 ones being referred to in this thread: https://mbworld.org/forums/c-class-w...eels-c350.html

Sorry I don't know the part number. They came with the intelligent light system option.
