C350 cdi
New to the Merc world and Coilover Q?

Hi everyone,

So just bought my first MB and went for a 2011 (60plate) c350 cdi w204 with pan roof, memory seats, hk system and loads more. I previously had an Astra VXR mk5 which I spent a lot of time modding both visually and preformance (got it to 278bhp with 336lbs of torque). I loved the car but was ready for the luxury life after owning it 4 years.

I don't want to spoil the merc as the drive is amazing (apart from the auto making me lazy). I do want to close the gap between the wheel and arch though as my first mod so what my best option Eibach springs, ap coilovers??

Thanks in advance

Thanks for the reply, I will look into these. Has anyone any pics with them on, how the car sits. Also is the ride harsh I expect it will be harsher than standard but is there a huge difference?

Thanks
