H&R Super Sport or Eibach Pro kit for my C180K Sport?

Hi Guys/Gals,

On H&R website, there aren't any application for H&R super sport springs for W204 C180K Sport. WIll the ones for C300/C350 work? i presume it will but it may not show that much lowering as the C300/C350 lump is heavier than the C180K.

Would i be safer to stick with Eibach Pro kit springs since they have specific ones for C180K?

Please advice.

Cheers.

Eibach prokit has made for 4 cylinder w204s, im not sure about H&R, just let them know urs is a 4 cynlinder when u order they should be ok
C300 C350 ones wont work for you
eibach dont lower as much as H&R SS but with 5mm spring pads u should get a mildly low with 1 to 3/4 finger wheel gaps, just remember to change those spring pads when ur at it

Why do i need spring pads? does it lower it a bit more?

I think i am gonna stick with eibachs for my ride....

yes the 5mm spring pads as oppose to stock 13mm spring pads
13 - 5 usually is 8mm of additional lowering
thats a lot actually, i didn't change it at the first place thought i wouldnt be needing it but later my unsatisfied eager made me drove the car back to put them in
btw 5mm spring pads part # 210-325-01-84
take a good look at the picture below

the spring pads are only for the rear
u cant and u wont need to replace the front, im pretty satisfied with the front height so far, going in and out level car parks is pretty easy with this front height
