Too lazy to look up the post and I'm on my iPhone so I will post it later if needed but yes, the hr super sport springs will work for the 4MATIC. Member here tried it and it works for him no problem.

Yea brotha, if you can get your hands on the H&R super sports do it! Like the others said, You wont see much of a drop at all! You will see and 1"-1.5"+/- with SS springs. Good luck and be sure to post some pics up!

I'm going to run super sports on my 4matic as well. Is there a pad preference for those of you that already done this. For example # 2 pads in rear and #1 front, or no pads at all?

you will see a little difference w sports, not much. At the least install a 5mm rear pad so u get a tiny bit more drop. I have a set w 48offset in rear and am slammed low and dont rub. only drop if you want to, if winters are a concern go sports bro

I guess the assumption is if a poster only says he has C3004Matic, it can be assumed it is a sport model, and not a lux ?
I wish owners would give more details, including home town, to make their posts more informative:
______________ *** All Members, New and some Old *** _______________
please click on User CP at the top left of page, just below the thread title. Then add the following to either Profile and/or Signature , selecting buttons on the left side of that page:
year, model, if it's a diesel, Sport or Lux, 4MATIC or RWD, Location (city & state), and non-US country if applicable.
This helps others respond to issues, like tires, spring options, part sales, etc. Thanx

i have the sport model. I took the rims off last night to take a look at the job and it looks like its going to be alot of work. I have called a few places and they are all saying its 8 hours worth of work and want to charge and arm and a leg. Anyone with a few pointers to make the install easier.
