I was going to say, actually, it's plenty low-- how much lower do you want to go? Any lower and you're going to rub... look at the second picture-- I really thought it was lowered already...

Sometimes it looks low and sometimes it looks high. The air suspension lowers when its parked.

I do 40 psi front and rear, less psi and you stand the chance of bending a wheel, more and you have ride harshness. 40-45 psi is a nice in between.

The CLS is one of the best looking Benzes ever made. Modded, it looks really sweet. The more the merrier. Good stuff!
