The stock shocks were to soft, and these Bilstein Sprot are getting to be to rough over the ever crumbling pavement here.

I was wonder what shocks would be a good compromise between the two?

 

I'm looking for new shocks as well..what about coilovers?

 

If you go with koni yellow, they are adjustable.

 

Coilovers are for a different suspension configuration. The damper won't fit in the existing spring perch on a W208. As for an alternative shock, what about the Bilstein HD's? A pair of F4-B36-1857-H0's for the rear and F4-BE3-2598-H0's for the front? They're softer than the sports.

 

anyone know a good spot to get the koni yellows for a good price? if not ill prob just go with the bilsteins at around 300-350...

 

Where are you going to get yours from?

 

That's what I was considering, the HD's. Guess I'm just getting old...

 

Or here's an idea.....

Using CLK55 shocks. Does anyone know anything about them?

 

The kleeman speed sensitive dampers are the only shocks that can do both rough roads or nice highway on the drop of a time. The only problem is the cost.
