Re:

Looks great! I just had my 2002 CLK430 dropped at Kleemann two weeks ago. I am running H&R springs with Kleemann dampers. I have a #1 pad in the rear and a #3 in the front (it sits pretty level). I may change the front pad to a #1, but I'm going to wait until the new springs settle. I also want to wait and see how much additional drop I get from the supercharger when that goes in.

I will try and post some pictures this weekend. Again, awesome drop! The silver and black is tough.

Nice, definitely post up some pics! I may do the #1 front spring pad and leave the #3 in back as well. That way if anything is in the trunk it will still be level.

I am running 19x8.5 in the front with 235x35 and 19x9.5 in the rear with 275x30. I have had no rubbing with either the front or rear tires.

3 of the corners of my car sit level at just under 26". My front passenger side sits a 1/4 inch higher than the rest. It appears to be that it is because of where the end of the spring sits on the inner sided of the lower arm instead of the outer like on the driver side.
