I need some advice for lowering my car. I was planning to go with h&r sport springs and change the spring pads, but I've looked at other people's cars and it doesn't get me the ride height I wanted. Are there any other springs that can help me get lower? Haha I'm kinda on a budget too... Thanks!

vogtland and eibach are both lower

One can fine tune the ride height with the spring pads..I used H/R with Sport Bilsteins and Number One Spring Pads and my W210 is LOW http://www.mbenznl.nl/index.php?opti...d=28&PageNo=1#

I use B&G spring set and also changed the pads.

those are both really good ride heights. how's the actual ride? I heard that h&r's ride pretty good and I was just wondering about b&g

I have H&R on my 7 series BMW and it's a harder ride than my W210. But then my 7 Series is a bigger car.

The ride is good on my W210. I like it. But then it also depends on how your roads are.

Thanks~!

I am near Great Mall. I don't drive it much though. I think the last time I drove it was a month ago. Haven't even put gas in it for about 2-months now, haha.

Thanks~!

I was thinking about getting 20's for the rear but I got a good deal on these Petrols. You shouldn't rub(depending on your offset). I am running 19X9.5 ET20 on the rears with no rubbing. 8.5's on the rear should be fine.
