Lowering springs question..

Hi,

I was wondering which springs would you recommend for my ml350.. I was between H&R and eibach..
Which brand do you think is more reliable?

Is there going to be a bid difference in ride quality?

would you recommend lowering my car?

For those who lowered their car with brabus springs did you notice any difference in ride quality?

your feedback would be gratly aprecciated. thank you

I have the Brabus springs right now on my ML350 with 19" Sport package wheels. The ride quality is still great. Its a little more sporty and it holds the road great for being an SUV. Its a little stiffer than stock but since its a well built vehicle you probably couldn't tell. Its corners very well and 90% of the people that have ridden in my car would have never known it was lowered at all. When I tell them they say they would have never guessed because it rides so nice. Were thinking if upgrading to 20" Antera's or some Brabus Monoblock S wheels. I bought the Brabus sport springs from CEC in West Los Angeles.
