Exclamation lowering Avantgarde suspension??

i'm looking to drop the 211 between 1-1.5"

it has the Avantgarde package from the factory, although everything i see mentions " sport package " Only for the E320's.. mine is an E240.

Question is, does eibach 2566.140 fit the avantgarde suspension?

thanks.

i have an Avantgarde as well but I went with H&R thinking it would be better than Eibach. I was wrong. Im not sure if the Avantgarde actually matters but I just gave my mech the car specs and MY model and he came up with the H&R and Eibach options.

"Avantgarde" is called "Sport" in most US sales literature.


I don't know if the springs are any different than the non sport model.

^ you could be right N_Jay, here in Aus, W211 came out as AMG, Avantgarde, Elegance and Classic.
Avantgarde sits a few mm lower than the Elegance and Classic.

Mine is a US spec "Sport" model, but when researching the original sales literature I came across the name "Avantgarde" several times referring to the package. Aventgarde and Elegance were the same cost here. I don't know if anyone really bought a basic/Classic E350 here.

The Avant Garde is just a nice name to give to what we call the AMG sport package which contains wheels, chrome AMG exhaust tips, and front bumper without the gills on the side... also include leds on your rear lights and stop light on trunk... thats what ive come across... i believe the Eibach Lowering springs are very good they sell for 4matic and RWD...
