17' C43 Coupe
C43 Amg Coupe Aftermarket Suspension

Hello All,

I have been searching and have yet to find aftermarket suspension for the coupes. I believe that the sedan 450 suspension can work on the coupes, but has anyone found suspension for the coupes only? I see H & R suspension gives the sedans a 1.2" drop all around, i was hoping the coupe would go lower if they were to offer one. Can anyone help point me in the right direction? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Shazar

Hello Shazar,

We have looked into this ourselves and found that KW is currently working on a kit right now. Once it becomes available, we will be posting the information up.

Thank you!

Hey 3wd, thanks for that. Will they be releasing springs only?or a full coil over system?or both. Thank you for the reply.

Hello again,

From the information we've obtained, it seems to be only coilovers.

Thank you!

We are also working on a Coilover Suspension for the C 43 Coupe. However, still in the early development phase.

We have adjustable suspension that is developed by AMG. If you are planning on tracking the car a bunch and not use the car for a daily (which I don't think the c43/c63 is a good choice for this purpose), then I would look into coilovers.

but for daily use, just adding performance springs by H&R is the way to go. You'll get the drop you're looking for and still retain the AMG suspension that is more than capable for aggressive and spirited driving.

I love having buttons for exhaust/motor/suspension. Adjustability is so much better than being stuck with one setup.


Bags would be cool as well. I personally wouldn't modify my car to that extent since it's a lease. But if I owned it and planned on keeping the car for 5+ years.....

Hey guys, thank you all for the helpful information. But I'm looking for springs and not so much for a full coilover system. I guess I will order the c450 springs as I believe that should work on the coupes if I am not mistaken. If anyone could shed some light on that topic that would be much appreciated.
