Supersport help!
I have a 08 C300 with the sport suspension, I am about to be putting 19's on the car and was wondering what this is going to look like gap wise, and what it will look like with the super-sports installed.
I know this has been covered, but i want specific 19inch rim with super-sport PIC and a 19inch rim sport suspension PIC.
All i have fund is a bunch of different pictures that varied to much.
Also ride height wise, would the super-sports drop be enough to comfortably(anyone have specifics on how much the drop would be coming in difference to the sport stock springs) close the gap? or do i need coil-overs to make it truly look right.
Thanks guys

I have super sport with 18's getting 19's as soon as my old rims sell, and from all the pictures i've seen, 19's with supersport look the best, unless of course you can afford the coilovers. I can link a few pics of other cars i saved for the look.

Check out the link. I'm running super sports & 19" wheels. Fender gap is about half a finger... all depends on the size of your finger. I get zero rubbing with this setup.

Honestly if $ isn't an issue, get coilovers.. If your gonna get just springs go with supersports..with 19's there is noo gap in the front fender, the rear is about 1/2".. You can consider changing the spring pad but I don't recommend dumping the rear..if you would like to see pics look in my album..I also recommend an alignment when installing supersports.. And if your wondering,after 3 months there is noo signs of uneven wear on my tires.. Soo camber isn't an issue.. Good luck!

great info, didnt even think of wear, i had my 01 audi a4 on eibach spring and the camber really ate the sh*t out of my tires wear wise. I will probably just go supersports.
What is the average you guys pay for an install on springs?
and where is the best place to buy the springs?
thanks

I think 19's only look good if you have a lip. Otherwise a full face looks a tad too big. Also I have zero gap on my supersports front and rear.
