Juliana 21. I noticed you have 4matic model. I have the 2014 E350 4matic. Do you know if the H&R springs will work on them? I was told by H&R that they don't make anything for the 4matic sedan.

I kinda got the same answer. But the woman kept directing me to their site. I hear vogtland maybe the way to go. Not too low but not slammed

We have heard people saying the 2WD springs will work on the 4matic model, but these confirmations are all coming from people with C300, C350, or E 4matic with VOGTLAND or other springs.
We need confirmation from people with 4matic W212 that actually installed H&R sports springs, P/N 52728.

They'll work. I have Vogtland Springs and its for a non-4matic w212.

I also have Eibach springs (Bilstein 12) on my 2010 E200 CGI, with the same exact tire measurement.

The height will drop a little bit over the next couple of months. When I installed the B12 kit, the car had about 3-finger gap in the front, 3 in the rear. Now it's at 2 (a tight 2) in the front, 2.5 in the rear. I'm okay with this height; actually I'd prefer to have 2.5 in the front, because I scratch the bottom coming out of some (not all) underground garages.
