GL450, S500,
rear toe to, i just remember we set it more toe in than the spec. The rear camber was something crazy like 4.8 degrees neg. But if you have room to straighten the camber without rubbing that probably would be best. I am currently cleaning up another set of wheels to try on the car. When I align it again and will print out my settings

ZedStyle or someone with a stanced W124 could you please please please tell me what suspension you are running?
I'm currently all stock, 1986 300e and I have 18"x8" Monoblocks planning on 205/40 or 215/40 tires, not sure yet, depends on what drop I get.
I want to SLAM the car, but I CANNOT find out what to do to get so low and I read all these threads on some MB forums and the purists are SOOOO against stancing it's annoying and difficult to even get clear information. I don't care about "safety" and OEM specs and all that crap, I want to stance the car and that's it.
I've looked at air bags, no go and way to expensive. Yellow Speed Racing "coilovers" but I don't want to spend $1000 on a car worth $2000 unless it's the only real good option I've heard they are real harsh too but with so much adjustability can't that be fine tuned or are people exaggerating.
I've read very conflicting information about H&Rs mixed with Bilstein Sports and the car certainly not being low enough with 3-4 inches of wheel gap! INSANE! Even with #1 spring pads that it way to much gap.
I had Eibach Prokit and Bilstein Sports with #1 spring pads all around on my 190e and I was not happy with it, not low enough. I was perfectly fine with the ride quality.
Any suggestions? Shock wise, Bilstein Sports and Bilstein HD seems to really be the only choice. Koni Yellows are too expensive. The only springs I see are H&R and they only say 1.5" drop.
My car has 240,000 miles with original springs, so not sure if I should cut them, but I will if that will get me low.

I really want this look and he says the original set-up was H&R with Bilsteins but how is that possible? People say you can't cut the H&R because they are progressive are they full of ****?
PLEASE HELP! Thank you!
