CLK320 changing springs, needs help

I just bought the Eibach Pro Kit from Tire Rack for my CLK320 Cabriolet.

It has AMG 18' Multipiece SL Wheels.

What size Pads should I use? or keep the original pads?

I just want the right height, not too lowered.

Any suggestions ???

Thanks

You can just change the springs and shocks,

If you want the car be even lower you can change the springs pads to 2/1 or 1/1.

Seems like you don't want the car to be too low, so I suggest you to keep stock spring pads.

Hey RezaH, let me know how it is after you get it done.

I'm thinking of changing the springs on my car as well.

Thanks,
Tieu

P.S. Remember, I bought your old rims.

I changed my spring pads when I lowered my car, but for most people it is too low. On a comfort basis, you'd be best off not changing your pads.

I'm changing my suspension within a week, the following is my setup:

H&R springs
Koni Shocks
1/1 Spring pads

I'll post a new thread about the ride after it's done.
