Very nice! Gnosis HS201 right? What are the wheel & tire sizes?Originally Posted by rev604
Hi guys, just got my H&R sport and 19 Gnosis installed, the ride quality after lowered is surprisingly as comfort as factory. Here is the pic for your reference, the front is sitting at 1.5 finger and 1.75 in the rear but I believe it will bit just a lil bit lower after the spring settles in.

What's up guys! My question might had been covered before but I'm still confused. My coupe has advanced agility pkg. Will H&R sport spring or Eibach Pro spring work w/o any modification?
What can I do to drop(mild) the coupe that equipped with the advanced agility pkg? Thks

Does Eibach make Sportsline springs for the w204? are H&R better as most on this thread seems to be running them.
I ran Eibach Sportsline springs on my BMW 3 series and they were great for handling, car glued to the floor and comfort was surprisingly excellent, I was running 19s also. Car was slammed.

That's weird. Those offsets typically work on the w204, assuming you're running 19x8.5 in front and 19x9.5 in the rear. What brand and size are your tires?Originally Posted by Silvrvette

there are loads of other well known companies that makes springs/suspensions.
Just to name a few;
Apex, PI, Spax.
has no one thought about trying them out? they seem cheaper.

Just to be sure, you have a switch on the dash for sport and comfort? That switch in sport makes the viscosity of the shock oil much thicker, making the ride very firm with little roll. It aso includes the basic sport and comfort adjustments of the transmission shift points.Originally Posted by Showa

AFAIK, Eibach only sells Pro-Kit's for the w204, which are close to the H&R sports in performance and drop. H&R also sells super sports for the big drop. these would be similar to eibach's sportlines, if they were available.Originally Posted by DEE-AMG

The H&R super sports are dual rate springs. They have a slightly stiffer rate for normal cruising, but are quick to change to a much stiffer rate with more load or deflection. They run into problems when the as-manufactured spring is off spec and when cruising, you are resting on the springs in stiff mode, providing a rough ride.
