BC Coilovers - Anyone Have Experience With These??

Hey Fellas,

Just picked up a 2014 CLS63 AMG-S which is my 3rd CLS. Before this one, I had an 06 CLS500 and then an 09 CLS63 AMG with none of them remaining stock for long. First thing I want to address with my 14 is getting rid of the 4x4 mode. I know the Evoklass (sp?) coilovers were a popular choice, but are no longer available to my knowledge. I don't think H&R springs will give me the drop that I am looking for so any experience or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. This 14 CLS is so much more refined than my previous ones and I'm loving it so far!!!!

I wasn’t aware that BC makes a kit for the w218 and w212 does it replace the rear bags? The KW sleeve over kit with rear link is a good choice that allows you to adjust the height

I found some online, but decided to call and confirm that BC does not make a kit of the w218. I think I am going to pull the trigger on the KW as it seems to be the best option. I have experience with the lowering links from my last CLS63. Thanks for the suggestion. My first CLS is in my sig and this was my last CLS63 that I sold recently...love these cars!!!!
