suspension mod for w126 Diesel

I have searched hard to find sport springs for this model. There is NO such thing.That's probably why noone's responding to your request. You probably need to "cut" the springs to give your lifted front end to bow some.

Wide wheels will make your car slower. I tried a set of 16's on mine and they made my car feel like I don't have turbo. But I agree that they surely make your car look good, atleast when parked.

Best of luck.
