Lowering Options for C63S Coupe
I want to lower it down about 3/4" so it will sit on top of the tire with a very small gap between the tire and the fender

I went with KW height adjustable spring kit, its really good. Lowering the car has given it a much better stance!

i'm assuming that the springs for the sedan will work on the coupe?

The rear have different spring heights so KW has 2 different part numbers for coupe vs sedan. We have coupe kits in stock. Sedan kits have a 2 week ETA once ordered and will ship from Germany.

After looking at the suspension this morning I think I'm going to cut a 1/4 coil off the front and 1/2 off a coil off the back

I am currently using the KW adjustable kit and I'm very happy with it. Very wide range of height adjustments
