Replacement springs & shocks. Will make the car handle a lot better but at the expense of some ride comfort.

Are they adjustable like the Carlsson's ? (I know they aren't available for the W211 from Carlsson yet) - Better than my AMG sport suspension?

Bilstein PSS-9 and Carlsson RS-sport are VERY similar. PSS-9 is more economical. Both are 9-way adjustables coilover suspensions. I know not many W211 owners would sacrifice ride comfort for performance. But just want to let you guys know there is an option if you ever want to do suspension upgrade. I would say PSS-9 is much better than the stock AMG suspension.

You can adjust the stiffness AND you can adjust the ride height. It will more or less look like the Carlsson RS-sport that I have just installed on my car: https://mbworld.org/forums/showthrea...threadid=50714

For pricing info, please shoot me an e-mail.
