How to get my front end lower. I put 17mm pads in the back but the front is still to high, like 2inches wheel gap. He looks higher than stock ...

That couldn't be correct. I just had H&R springs with 17mm rear spring pads fitted too my W204 C63 sedan at the weekend and it's definitely much lower than stock. Are you sure they fitted the springs correctly.

2 inches seems bit too much. i dont think stock even has 2 inches gap.

take pics of the suspension. turn wheel all way to one side and u can get pics that way.
and post it

I remember after installing H&R springs on my C300 it took a few days to really settle in. However it was definitely noticeably lower right after install..

604 C63

Something is distinctly wrong with your install. Have it checked immediately. That IS higher than stock.

Hi check it twice. I'll post a pic this weekend... the rear seems to be right but the front pissed me off.

The garage says its pretty easy, the front have no pads, it's sitting like the oem one.

Here's the pics. Tell me if you guys see anything wrong !

It does look like its sitting awfully high.

Based on the two pics you have there, I would just say to make sure that the spring is seated properly at the bottom.
I have tried to dummy up a crappy photo for you here. Where the red is its an indent, and the very end of that spring needs to butt up to that indent, so that it is fully seated down. The blue arrow represents end of that spring. If that spring was turned and not sitting like that before that assembly was fully back together you would be sitting high, and the spring DOES look like its on a bit of an angle there relative to the rest of the assembly. May just be the pic tho. There is also rubber at the top that needs to be seated properly.

It's too high. Install error. Reinstall.

604 C63

Or yeah, you could just put it that way too, I suppose

ok ill reinstall it on monday.
Somebody have diy on springs installation ?

604 C63

There is a DIY link in this thread here. The reason I don't just take you to that is there is some good advice here that you should read first, since the actual DIY is for regular C Class.

I think the springs have a issue. Installation is done Well on my car. Still have de bump stop on it. The spring is sitting properly ... Dont know what to do.

EDDIE12

if the springs are installed correctly as you say then you must have the wrong springs for your exact w204 model. I personally would have them removed asap.

604 C63

The model number on the spring in the picture is correct. Something is out of whack but it doesnt look like we will solve it here.

I agree with 604 C63. The number on the spring is the correct application for a 2010 C63. You will need to contact your supplier or H&R directly and go from there.
