I think I found another coilover kit for the W204 C Class

Has anyone ever heard of this kit? I just found this. I hope it's true. I sent them an email. Maybe some folks from Canada know something about it.

Hey whats the advantage of coilovers? You can adjust the ride height at any time after installation?

KSport makes pretty decent budget coilovers, but some of their products come from a specific manufacturer that provides coilovers for other brands so expect other brands to come out with w204 coilovers soon. They are great for people on budget.

Personally, I'd wait for H&R coilovers.

I think you should buy a set right away, install it, and post a review with pics. What a great idea. Mmm-hmm.

Yes. They just said they are for the W204. I replied by asking for a lowering amount. I really don't think they are for me.

1) 36-way adjustment. I don't have a race car. I just want a mild drop and improved handling. I think the C handles pretty well. I have the Eibach springs and if dampers don't come out soon, I am just going to install them. I have done enough asking around and am confident they will work well with OE dampers.

2) I have never heard of them.

3) I think the ad said they are plated? I'm not sure I trust that.

Yea good point. Hmm. Although it is nice to have the option of being able to raise the car for the winter time. Thats the only thing stopping me from getting lowering springs, I need the clearance for the snow in the winter time and lately we been getting alot of snow :P This winter was amazing on how the 4Matic handled.

For the improved handling you seek, consider the Eibach front and rear antisway bars to go with the springs...outstanding!

Ksport has big brake kits for the 2007+ W204s but this is the first time I saw their line of coilovers for our cars... and it's a few hundred dollars cheaper compared to H&R's Street Performance coilovers
