what company makes good lowering springs for clk55 w209 and price?

slavik

i too have the same question.... also will the stock shocks hold or will they need to be replaced as well?

DBLNICKL

i'm gonna say the most popular choice of lowering springs are "H&R"...most of the folks around the board use them...i believe they run about $500 or so brand new...and i do believe they can be used with the stock shock setup...do a search for it, i'm sure u'll get some feedback...

u can get H&Rs from tirerack for 240+shipping.

DBLNICKL

oooooh really...................? thanks for that bit of info.

s4avt

I got H&R..

and I didnt had time to install the rear yet, but front looks good so far...

chen38

yeah. and shipping was pretty fast. i think it is the cheapest u can find out there...

dwizzy510

thank you for all for the info i was seraching and mostly it was the H&R springs that came up anyone have a pix of the car with them on?

FatTony001

If H&R are installed... will you lose the great stock comfort?

LOVEMYBS

Front and rear H&Rs installed without any noticeable change in the ride. They will lower your car about 8-9 tenths of an inch which (IMHO) makes the car look a lot better. BTW, I'm still using OEM 17" AMG rims with the new Eagle F1 A/S all season tires.

imho, you lose more comfort when you upgrade to larger rims and less tire profile..


lowering your vehicle 1.2" isnt gonna let you feel a great diffrence with the stock rim/tire setup.

ohlord

inch will increase spring rate about 10% and if you keep oem rims the biggest difference with the drop will be the negative camber you will need to correct with a good hunter machine alignment at the dealer.
