C32 H&R lowering springs...
ok, currently wanted to do the H&R lowering springs for my C32...i hate how the front wheel gap space is on the stock springs on the C32's...the stance looks un-even!
i like how the rears are sitting, but the fronts..are up too high..the '05-07' C230's ride height looks a lot better!
anywho..has anybody done JUST the H&R lowering springs just for the fronts??
how does the handling of the car differ if i keep the stock springs and put H&R lowering springs on the front??
any input would be great!

ive put cut h + r springs on the front of my c230 until i have time to do the rears and im driving around with it... it feels kinda similar to stock suspension but i dont know if i would leave it like that.. you can kinda feel that the front is stiffer when turning and such..

Check out the sig. HR Sport OEM on all four on 19s staggered. could use about .25" lower in front but, there's
a price to pay for that.
If you've got the funds, go with coil overs.

From what I've always heard, H&R's will still have the front a little higher than the rears. Some people either cut half a coil in front or put a thicker pad on the rear to even it up.
Check out the regular W203 forum for more info.
Good Luck.
