Went a tad lower infront to try to even out the slam...
So, I tried another finger. Still drives very nice no rubbing no scrapping still or clicking when turning. I had a nice drive from the keys back to Miami Loaded. 4 adults and a good sized teenager. And all are bags from the weekend. The car did lower in back about half a inch. But still rode awesome 
I also alined the car which the rear was super chambered but fixed, got the comp pic print out if anyone wants me to post it. But it square right in the middle. Check it out, o yea and the purple S was my old ride, as you can tell the new owner is lazy and cheap (dirty)
If you go back on my threads I have pics of it before i lowered the front more....

No, Rides great. The ride changed when i put the wheels and such a low profile tire, but it stayed stock height for about 2 weeks and the gap was killing me. So I went ahead and bought eibachs. Like I had posted before on my other thread, lowering these cars are tricky. But can be done right with patiences. I CUT ALL 4 springs lol. I started with slamming the rear ( eibachs then cutting I think it was 2.5 coils maybe more, i can find out exactly if you guys like) then when we went to do the front. The owner of the shop has a e350 like mine but even lower :/, but when he turns he hears a click which is the the spring moving. And thats what i was trying to avoid so we did 1 coil cut in front first. But it didnt look even to much of that "gangsta lean" so we tried another half. And thats how it landed, as of ride and bouncing and so what. Rides just like the day I put the 20s a little rougher but no bouncing, FULL U TURNS no rubs. The mech said if I go anything lower ill get the clicking. But I think its sitting perfect as of now.

And of course, being so low. You cant have a fight with your girl and decide to leave like a d**k and hit speed bumps or come out a gas station peddle to the metal because you will scrap the F out the front.
lol just a tip

Still a bit low for my tastes, especially in the back, but more power to you for having the grapefruits to pull that off, and it looks much better with the front brought down!
BTW, since you came from a W221, how do you like the differences between the W212 E VS the S?
