Mercedes Benz E-class W212 E200 Bilstein B16 PSS10 Coilover suspension upgrade

Had the car for 6 years and my wife started to complain about the car being too bumpy.....
Right then....
Upgraded the suspension from stock to this new set of B16 PSS10 from Bilstein. I also replaced a couple of wear and tear parts with new ones
including upper strut mounts and sway bar links for both front and rear.

All rebound levels was set to level 5 and the car feels very stable now. I think I will keep this setting for around 6 months and see if I will adjustments after.
Meanwhile the car was also lowered for the looks, without tires touching fenders of course.

This car looks identical to my 2015 E400 here in the US, is that designo paint as well? It looks the same, but I cannot remember what mine is called. Very nice job and thank you for the write-up. Where are you located btw? We don't get the E200 here in the US.

Sweet....very sweet
I think PSS10 ( B16 ) is 15mm lower by default at its "tallest" setting compared to full stock.
Do let us know how compliant these are on bad roads.

Did you do corner weights ?
