H&R Super Sport Springs on 4Matic

I've read that at least one person on this site has done it. Any else do it and confirm they work on the 4Matic. I would really like to do this however would prefer feedback from several people.

W205 c400 sport
I have the H&R super sports but have yet to put them on. I'm itching to do it but i'm worried about a huge snowfall yet this season. Snow is dumping all around my city, but it seems that where i live, not much snow has fallen yet, that is why i'm hesitant. I may have to pull the trigger anyways because i know a lot of owners here want conclusive evidence that these work for the 4matic.

Maybe mbworld members can persuade me to do it sooner than later.

Are you sure those are Super Sport Springs, I would of thought it would be lower. They look more like a Sport Spring drop based on others I have seen. What color are the springs. Thanks.

Perfect, I was looking at the Asantis pics. Car looks like the perfect drop on the Super Sports. Since you've had both, can you comment on the ride difference. I called H&R and they said I cannot put the SS on my car, however many people have. Did you have the AWD Sport springs and did you notice the difference in springs between the two, other than height of course. Thanks, this is really helpfull.

Here is something interesting, if you go to the Carlsson website, they clearly show the same spring set part no for everything above a C280, AWD or not.
