Last time I checked the KW V3 are a great CO, but may not have the super drop you want.

Cut H&R SS Coils?

H&R SS Springs, Pic and description





IMHO, Cut 1/2 coil off each end. Say first cut the bottom of a front coil. Then be careful to measure the length of the cut, and exactly match that cut on the opposite side's bottom of the front coil. Visually, it looks like there will be enough flattened, small dia coil remaining to seat properly in the rubber seats. If not, try 1/3 coil off.


Other CO's ... Megan, Buddy Club, D2?

These are between $800-$1000, and are good for dropping the car for show. Shocks are included.

Megans have been tried:

My H&R Sport springs also didn't give me that much drop but I didn't know at that time if the H&H SS would fit and also if their is negative consequences in installing them since they are not recommended by tire rack for the c300 4matic

H&R offers sport springs for the 4MATIC's, and also for the RWD with different part numbers. But their engineers said that the SS springs are for rwd only, with only one part number. For some reason they did not bother making the special front coil needed for the 4MATIC (suspension altered for the front half shafts).

At least least 1 memeber has posted about doing what you're thinking of, and he found that the front spring was not stiff enough, and easily hit coil bind hard. This resulted in a nasty knock when the the front end or a front corner was compressed from hard braking, etc.
