2000 CLK 3.2
Those springs on the pictures are not like the ones we have. Ours are even top and bottom so it doesn't matter which side you cut as long as every cut is perfect to the next one or you will have an uneven drop. And if you end up uneven like most of us are sitting right now because that's how these cars are what you will need to do is just get bigger or smaller pads to adjust your height for evenness around the car. That's what spring pads are for. I run a #2 on driver side and #1 on pass side in front....my car has always been like this even before I cut my springs and i bet your car will have a small defect somewhere as well, I'm sure it does right now but you can't tell because you don't have a point of reference because you have a big fender to tire gap that doesn't allow you to see this.
