Apollo Coilovers - W204 Drop Height help
Hey guys, I'm getting a set of coilovers custom made here in taiwan by a brand called Apollo, it's a trusted brand here. I was wondering what a good height to drop the front and rear would be? I've been reading a lot and with the H&R super sports springs it seems to drop the front 1 3/4 of an inch and the back 1 1/2? That seems too low for the w204 wagon that I'll be fitting the coilovers on, any advice regarding coilovers/w204 wagon is appreciated. thanks in advance!

if you are carting people around in your car you might not want to be as low as supersports for daily driving. I know when i have 2 people in my back seat i rub going over bumps and dips. then again im running 19x9.5/265 in the rear, and youll be on coils so slam it

thanks guys, i think ill be going with a less aggressive drop as its my dad's wagon (his daily car) and if those coils work out good for him then i will get a set for myself too and slam it down. haha, the wagon's measurements should be the same as our sedans tho, right?
