Hi all. I am quite new in forum, I own a CLK 55 AMG restyling 2006, since about 3 months ago. I'm interested to replace the suspension kit (springs + shock absorber) . For the shock absorbers, I found them easily and I already have it at home, they are the Koni Sport (yelow) , but the problem comes with the springs, I can not find specific springs for the AMG version, I've seen Eibach, H&R and Vogtland, and they're all generic (they're for all engines even includes the cabrio versions)

And my questions are, can all be installed in my AMG? They will fit to my car without any problems? There are no specific springs for the AMG version?

And this leads to another question, the level of lowering indicated by these generic springs are based on the normal versions which is why it does not really t lowered compared to the AMG version

Thanks for the link, I had already seen it, but 40 mm of lowering is too much. I'm looking for something max 30mm, ideal 25mm, I have to cross the ultra inclined ramp of my parking and my city is completely full of speed bumps ...

I was very happy with the Vogtlands on my Coupe. My impression was that they softened up the ride a bit but ride height was little changed.

Ok thanks por the feedback but, your vogtlands are these?

I had a similar issue on my C32 with H&R lowering springs. To my knowledge, the springs weren’t specific to just my C32 but rather the entire W203 lineup. The rear was too low and causing rubbing. I found a few threads where members were swapping in thicker spring pads to create more clearance. After having the #4 spring pads installed, it never rubbed again and it looked great.

Finally I have found specific springs for AMG, they are H & R and other ones Eibach, but both are -40mm it's a lot of lowering, I think it's crazy, I'm looking for something -25mm max --30mm

All the rest of the brands, only makes generic springs, nothimg specific for de AMG version...

One question, someone knows if the data of height reduction that say some springs brands (for example H & R says -40mm) are based on the "non AMG" models or if on the contrary they are based on the AMG version that already comes down 20mm with respect to the nominal versions ??Because in the case of H & R it seems crazy to me a reduction of -40mm compared to clk55 amg, if it is respect to the normal versions maybe if it is acceptable...

Thank you

This is what your car looks like with the H&R lowering springs?
