Lowered A45 AMG with H&R spring

My friend lowered his car with H&R spring. I want or lower my car also but worry if balance will come bad just changing spring only. Right now has great balance.

What do you guys think?

looks good. there's an A45 AMG specific spring already from H&R or did he use an off the shelf A-Class H&R spring?

The only thing I see listed online is for the 2014 CLA 250.

The A45 looks fantastic lowered on springs. Go for it.

That looks excellent !

Does it in any way adversely affect the ride or dynamics compared to the AMG set up ?

Just as a side note, I finally got to check out both the CLA45 and A45 in the flesh last weekend and definitely prefer the A45, IMHO the CLA's shape is awkward looking from some angles and the rear end is ugly, the A45 on the other hand is bang on perfect from any angle so lucky we have the A45 available here

Mercedes A45 Amg

Failure to solve the problem of slow speed maneuvers, much less the severe problem of the springs tying the links (in each other) in the undulations of the streets, which makes the vehicle EXTREMELY UNBEATABLE AND DANGEROUS. Note: I rode less than 400 Km. Code H & R 28858-3
I not buy anymore.
Forgive my English.
