I was just at the dealer to look at tint and select the one that I want installed when the car arrives. I noticed a signifiant different in the ride heights of the C300 Sport 4matics they had and the C350 with advanced agility package they had.
Has anyone else noticed this different. It was about an inch difference.

That makes no sense. 
Of course it doesn't but I promise you. 2.5 finger gap between the 18" wheel and fender on the 350 and 1 finger gap on 300 4matics at my dealer.

Is it very easy to slide the two fingers inbetween the front fender and front wheel? I'm telling you it was slightly more than a 2 finger gap on the C350 with AAP and I could only fit ONE finger on the C300 Sport 2matic.Originally Posted by Joearch
I ahve AAp on my C 300 and there is about a 2 finger gap.
Can any members on here verify?

Yes, rear wheel is snug fit for 2 fingers, front wheel is a little more loose.

Super Bump. Rather than start a new thread.
I noticed this too. Anyone else noticed this since this thread was started? I noticed all C300s (Sport 4matics) sit lower than my C350 Sport. Especially the rear. I'm blaming the rear on most likely a larger bump stop, but the rear on mine sits noticeably high.

I'm pretty sure this has been discussed and the conclusion was that the 4matic sport model sits lower than others. Someoen will be able to chime into verify this soon.

The spec's say both the C300 sport and the C350 (sport by default) have the same roof height.

Isn't is cause the C300 4matic heavier cause of the AWD system?

Just check the MB spec's for car height, and compare models for a start.

Sorry to bring back such an old thread.
I have a 2011 C350 and I have noticed that it sits too high in the back, for my taste. Is there any way to lower just the rear? I've read about the rear "spring pads" coming in different heights, which would be perfect for me, since I could retain the stock springs, but I have not been able to read about anyone installing the shorter "pads" with stock suspension. Everyone I've read about, installed them together with lowering springs. Can anyone shed some light on this?
Thanks!
