Hello Dmitry. For quite a while, I have been searching for taller spring pads for both front and back of my 2009 CLK 550, and your post above is the first I have seen quoting part numbers for them.
Could you please be so kind as to make mention of a good source where I can obtain the spring pads whose part numbers you posted above. I am hoping to acquire both front and rear spring pads to raise the car up a bit, since many of the roads in my neck of the woods are rutted.

Unfortunately there is no such pads for front suspension, only for rear. Regarding your question where to source them I know only where to buy them on US market.
BTW I updated my post with more details. Those pads are probably made by Febi so I added Febi part numbers, it should be easier to find those outside US

Ah I see. Buying from an online supplier with a US delivery address has been the usual way I keep this car on the road out here in the sticks, but now that I understand these taller spring pads are only sold for the rear of the car, I'll stay with stock for now, since raising the rear of the car alone will likely induce a more nose-down angle in the front, possibly resulting in less ground clearance at the front.
The search continues. Much thanks for this explanation sir.
Thank you for the information . DO you know what comes stock ? I called Mercedes to order and they said I have to figure out which I have from those dimples you highlighted . Can this be done without removing the springs ?

Unfortunately I don't know what comes stock, but you can order all 4 sets for example from FCP Euro (about $60 for 4 sets), install two you need and return the rest
