Lowering 300E without changing springs
I have a 300E on which I recently changed the springs. I have the original 15 inch alloy wheels. But with the new springs the car is a lot higher 'on its feet' . How can I lower the car without changing the springs? Because it really had raised about 5 centimeters.

Wait a few months/miles before making your decision. Springs can take some time to settle. You can then try using thinner spring pads. I believe that the max drop you can do is around 1/2 inches. You might also try getting your car aligned back to spec. Althought it might be sublte, this also might get you back down.
