i cant access ebay at my office. but im almost positive that bilstein doesnt offer lowering springs. as far as the shocks it depends on the model. theres the "sport" and "heavy-duty". the HD shocks would be the best bet. but in all honesty i dont like neither koni yellow adjustables are a better buy with flexiblity on adjustment especially for lowered vehicles. they have great rebound and smooth dampening. i lowered my car 2.25" and its been awesome with my lorinser coil and koni setup...

Im certain that bilstein does not offer lowering springs to a clk320. they have shocks HD's and sport's.
I have a 1998 clk320, i bought eibach lowering springs which lowered about 1.3" front and back, PERFECT
and i bought bilstein sports shocks rear and front.
This gave me looks and great handling. If you have good roads where you live don't go for Heavy duty (HD's), but if roads are in a bad condition sports are gonna give a harsh ride!!!

THe link is for Bilsteins and Vogtland springs. I cant give too much feedback, except on the price of these youre not saving too much when you add shipping on.
From what I've read, you cant go wrong with the Bilsteins and as long as the springs are a quality brand you should be fine. I would shop around and try to save some $, or make a better offer to the seller.
