![Question](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/icons/icon5.gif)
Folks,
Besides the skirts, fog lamps, and wheels/tires, are there other differences between the sports package and non-sports? Like suspension,etc?
Thanks!

According to the dealer, yes, there is a suspension difference which uses firmer shocks. This is what the service tech told me at Mercedes as we were conversing about E classes.

Not the same as the W202 C-Class Sport Package - It does have different suspension setup.

Well, I guess it's time that I go and give that service tech at Mercedes a piece of my mind for not knowing what the heck he's talking about. The answer to your question "hgp" would then be yes. Anytime you go with a lower profile tire, the ride on the vehicle gets stiffer due to less roll on the tire.
