Talking W205 C300 comfort model Lowering questions.

I've been looking out for 2016 - 2017 C300 with Sport Suspension (321), Multimedia Package (320) and Premium Package (P01). I scan 3 dealer websites each week, but it's hard to find in my area.

If I buy a C300 with comfort suspension, what's involved in lowering the car. Do you just buy springs and use the same shocks?? I know zero about lowering.

Yes, you can just replace the springs to lower the car. I got a 2017 coupe with the comfort suspension and threw on some Eibach springs to lower it by 1.25" front and rear. Keep in mind that this WILL make your ride much harsher, even more so if you upgrade to 19" wheels down the line like I did. Would not recommend if you live in an area with crappy roads.

Before with original 18" wheels and suspension:



After, with 19" wheels and Eibach lowering springs (1.25"):
