What's your choice between Eibach and H&R spring for w212? I heard majorities would choose H&R over Eibach.

2012 Mercedes Benz E550 4Matic Sport Sedan
Vogtland was the right solution for my project.

Also, I wouldn't worry so much about what other people vote TS. Better to find out what is the best application for your goal/s.

There are many different solutions to problems in life. The best one is always the one that works for you.

PS: One of the reasons someone may choose to go with one brand is because of what fits on your vehicle. Here is a quote from about a month ago when I was researching lowering springs...
"I called Autoanything and TireRack both confirmed they do not sell H&R springs to lower a 2012 E550 4Matic 4dr sedan.

I asked if they had a contact at H&R I could call. They gave me the technical questions line at H&R 1-888-827-8881.

H&R confirmed their super springs are not designed for the W212 Sedans, E550 4Matic. They offer an ETS electronic lowering system for our cars which costs $1,850."

"I just learned Vogtland make springs to lower a 2012 E550 4Matic 4dr sedan. The part number is 952053.

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you have the sport package this spring is not compatible if you purchased the special order airmatic suspension for $$1,860."
