KW Coilovers....
I was browsing their website and noticed they make a Variant 2 Kit for the 209 CLK... I was wondering if these could fit on a 208? Here is the application list...

No, the w209 suspension is entirely different than the w208.

Too bad they don't make coilovers for W208. I heard that they make good coils for e46.

The best coilovers for the E46 are H&R's; especially the set they make to our settings for the M3. It's really a shame that they aren't making them for the w208.

I have H&R coilovers on my Audi A6 4.2... they are awesome. Evosport is having custom coilovers built for my CLK project. You might make an inquiry after they have them built and installed on my car.

It's business to them. If you can either fund the entire project, or show them how they will sell thousands of kits, then they may make it. But in reality, how many CLK owners do you think would really purchase coilovers? 15? 20? 50?
