strut pads?
I guess I shouldve checked with you guys first...I have 18" monos on my car. I recently purchased some front struts and the smallest pad the dealer had.Im hoping that these pads will work.How much of a drop is it from the stock pads of an 89300ce?

The smallest pads for the w124 are the 8mm ones i think, the ones with just one "lump", you have to see how many "lumps" do your stock pads have!
