Benz Elite in Alexandria can do it for you. Member on here gave them the DIY instructions which will not cause a reset back to normal. Before, it was being done and after a few startups, it would cycle back to normal height.

Another place that does it is euromotors in bethseda, but you have to ask the tech for an "alignment".

Thanks for the info novae500

Any suggestions on how much to lower the car? I want to get a more aggressive stance but not have to worry about rubbing. I have a the OEM 19" wheels and tires if that makes a difference..

TIA

STAR does not lower the car that much,so no worries about rubbing.

I have a renntech v3 elm on my black e and lowered it 2.0 F and 2.25R and one finger gap in the wheel well. No rubbing at all.

Why do people lower their car? Is there any advantages?

In my case, just for looks.
I would suspect there are some advantages with handling as well..
