How low can you slam your car with STAR? This low....
Had the guys who did the STAR treatment on my car yesterday show me how low the car can sit...

Sorry for the crappy cell phone pic...btw, I didn't slam my car. I just wanted a 1 finger gap between the tire and the fender so that's all I got.

My initial reaction was to ask "Why?" But there are some things I'm better off not knowing.

mrfobbyaccent .. there are A LOT more W211's without airmatic, so search this forum .. you'll find what you're looking for .. links, washers, SDS, ELM are all for airmatic.

Ohh that look good.....I want to do the same on mine. Couple questions:

1. Did you have the final height number on the SDS for the front and rear?
2. How is the ride quality and did you have to re-alignment?

TIA

I can help you to lower via SDS but please do a search on this subject to find more about pro and cons before you do it.
