H&R Springs on Stock Non-PP Suspension

How much of a drop will the springs give me? Does anyone have a picture with the stock 18's? I'm assuming it will make the ride stiffer? Not really a problem, but I do notice the suspension is already stiffer than my old C300 obviously.

It will give you a drop as advertised which is -2cm (0.78")

Here are some old pics of my car - H&R springs, stock 18" wheels, no spacers

Hey Matt, did you notice a difference with ride quality from OEM to springs to H&R coilovers? What's the highest setting for the coilovers? Is it still lower than stock height?

Thanks! Loving the mean wagon.

Thanks
I did notice a big difference because I went from springs at -2cm to coliovers at -4cm.
I don't know what the highest setting on the coils is because I set them on the lowest setup alraedy when I installed them.

The ride is rough but taking sharp turns and corners with this suspension is a night and day difference. No body roll and great road feedback on the steering wheel.
On my next car I won't even consider springs - I'll just get coils straight away.
