Dropping CLS with STAR

How low can the W219 be lowered using an SDS? I've been trying to lower my buddy's '06 CLS500 with it and I'm having some success.

I first tried setting it to the lowest settings all around and the driver's side was lower than the passenger side. The driver's side looked sweet!

So then I leveled it up as best as I could while still keeping it low, and it looks OK just not as low as I've seen others on this forum. Do the inclination angles also determine ride height or is it just the adjustment of the voltages? I used the 3.5 fronts and -1.1 rear inclination angles that were mentioned in the E-Class thread.

At it's current setting, I can fit 3 fingers in the front tire gap and 2.5 in the rear. It's on stock 18's.

Thanks!

I finally leveled it out. Overall it's probably 3/4" lower. He'll probably end up getting links later.
