H&R Lowering Springs Mercedes C63/C63 S AMG Sedan (15-20) Sport or VTF Adjustable Spr
I'm interested in lowering my 2020 C63S AMG.. Has anybody installed either of these sets? for the same price, I'd be interested in the ability of adjusting.. or is there a better option?
There is a guy on here, Tobeit.....I think that's the spelling. He had KW adjustable springs I believe. He just sold his car, but had some pictures. Maybe he can give you some insight on adjustability.

That looks really good. I’m also considering lowering springs for my coupe.
Did you need to install a camber kit to keep wheels within alignment specs?
Thank you. I'm very happy with it and would recommend this set up to anyone who wants to lower the car for more daily driving/spirited driving. I didn't need the adjustability personally as I would probably have never used it.
Some around here have used KMAC. I did not. My alignment was done with stock suspension components.

I'm going to go with the Bilstein B16 option which lets you adjust how much you can lower the car but still retain the stock electronics. I have had their coil overs on other MB's and I like the quality and price.

haha, yeah, that guy is me. I would recommend any of the adjustable kits (KW, HR, Renntech...). I opted for KW as I had good experience with them before. Fixed springs are hit and miss for me. Had them and often did not like them (had them on BMW, Mazda, MB, Lexus) - sometimes the drop is right on, sometimes its uneven, too little, too much...HAS kits give you the flexibility to make it a nice fit as you wish. KW HAS makes it a little stiffer but handles great, no squeaky noises. They do settle a little after install but easy to adjust.

Very nice ride man, I've got the coupe.. which KW HAS kit did you get? I see several kits. starting at $900 and the next one is $1439. Also which brand Spoiler do you have? I'm on the market for one and like the shape of yours..

I am only showing one KW HAS kit for each model: Sedan 25325081, Coupe 25325089 - both $1049 on KW web page. Spoiler is PSM Dynamics (same as front, side, and rear diffuser).

Ahhh gotcha, do you recommend any vendors for this kit?

You mean the HAS or PSM kit? You can buy directly from both manufacturers ...I did not find resellers that sell much cheaper, maybe if you wait for a sales promotion.

Those wheels and that drop are spot-on. That’s one of the best looking sedans I’ve seen…perfect!
Good point on adjustable vs. springs. I’d rather pay once for install and be able to adjust height as I consider navigating my steep driveway. Any money saved on springs would go directly into replacing front spoilers…

Hey brother don't know if you received my last message but in these photos are your springs on the max low setting?
I ran a 10mm in the front and the rear is no spacer with a 295. Now I am running a 285 with a 3mm spacer in the rear. If you want perfect fitment on the front, run a 12mm spacer, but if you have to 2-3 wheel often(my driveway is steep) you will rub on the fender when the wheel is slightly turned
