The pads are for the rear springs only. If you would like a little more rake, then leave the stock 13mm pads on. You said you like the HotelCrazy's car, so just duplicate his setup and use the 5mm pads.

Shows how educated I am on these cars lol. Thanks for the advise. I think I'll go with something in the middle. Not looking for a ton of rake, but just don't want the land yacht stance. The w203's were notorious for that, which made a lot of people clip coils on the front. Just didn't want to run into that type of situation. Thanks, this helped!

Just out of curiosity, I have a 13' C250 with Sport Package. Are the Shocks lower than other models?

Did anyone find out if there is a coilover set going for the 4matic? I know the lowest application would be to just install the RWD H&R Super Sports onto the 4matic.

What do you guys think about these? I keep wanting shocks but I want something for long use. I have a luxury model so I have a bigger gap that sport and I really want to get rid of that gap

I just read the whole thread. You can use H&R sport springs safely or you can gamble with H&R super sport springs because they're not officially compatible

My car on HR SS. Just got them on today so I'm sure it will settle a little bit. Wheels are 18" LM Reps from Power Wheels Pro on 225/40 all around. Just need to change out the center caps to some black Mercedes ones.

I've looked up and down this thread, but I cant find this answer to: Longivity? how does H&R SS affect the car one to three years down the line. I want to get some SS but friends keep saying that the springs are going to mess up the car in about year? I just want to get some feedback from people that have actually had them on for over a year or so.

I think he means for 4Matics.

The Sports are the only springs officially compatible with them.

Mb c s204 estate
Hello!
New on forum looking for lowering springs for my S204 (estate) C220CDI, want to drop at least -40mm. Only found 30 to 35.
How is it, can you put W204 springs on a estate? Some have told me you cant.
