Does anyone ever lowered their w140? If so, please tell the following. My w140 is all stock with original shocks.

1) Do i need to buy new shocks?
2) What exectly will be done to lower the body to 1.5 to 1.75 inches?
3) Does anyone know how much is it going to cost me?

Anything else would be very helpful.

If anything , that thing needs V8 and its *** raised. Every s320 looks like it has 1000 bricks in the trunk.

What does the size of the engine have to do with the way the car sits on on its hind legs? Tell me if I'm missing something.

BTW, the W140 looks stupid lowered. The car is already big, lowering it more will only make it look like you have bad shocks (or 1000 bricks in the trunk and cabin) . Don't do it. Just buy big rims.

I dont know if this will really help you. I Have a 98 cl600. I put Eibach springs in it to lower it. My car since it is a 600 has the option of the airride computer controlled suspension. Some 600s have it and some do not. It lowered my car about 1.5 inches. I also have Lorinser body kit and LD1 20s on it.

If you call Globe motorsports in cali, they will hook you up with some springs. But without wider tires and wheels it makes no sense to lower an s320. I also have an S500 97 and i would never lower that car. I hope most people would lower a car for the enjoyment of the ride. The wheelbase is too long for an S-Class 4 door to be a cornering car. I would agree put your money towards some rims, you get a lot more enjoyment out of those.

If you have anymore questions let me know. Sam

Question

Thank you mafia and Sam.

Now, i was thinking of buying bigger rims and wider tires. But the other day i was on the road and i saw an older w140 with huge, massive rims and tires and it looked cheap. See, i dont want it to look like a ghetto mobile.

On tirerack.com i saw some nice AMG monoblock IIs and i also saw AT Italia Lunas. They both are beautiful rims.

Which of those would you guys think is a better buy..is AMG better than AT Italia? and what size would make the car look unique but not ghetto?

Thanks

Nothing, only how it performs, s320 has hte performance of a metro bus and should stay that way forever. Lowering W140 is beyond stupid. As to bad shocks, like I saidI have seen a few S320 with their rear end down way down, may be it were bad shocks (or those guys were building a brick house at the time) but it looked very sad.

I have UNlowered S500 wich has self leveling in the rear and is a rocket in comparisson to what you have. In London airport I have been givena ride in smart car and loved it enough to put in my whatever you call it here without actually owning one. Plus its a good bait for clowns like you. Sad to say but take that smart car out of your trunk and drive it instead because it is a lot more fun and probably faster. ME walking is faster than S320.

clown I dont know what you have seen but 99 S500 special edition has 255/45/18 all around and it still looks small. I have the same set up and you could not tell that the car has 18 because overall the car is so bulky--you will see the difference if you put it next to anything with 16's, but is hard to say if you were driving by yourself on highway. I dont think you need bigger whells either. With your engine you will be slower than metro bus and what is hte point? I take my car in 3rd gear to 110mph and that is only the begining of a beautifull thing --you would top at 119mph in 5th in yours.

Now seeing that you can't make desission on the choice of hte wheels iit is clear that you purchased S320 on the advice from a bus driver. Congrats!!

First of all, everyone doesn't need a s500 to be happy with the W140. I have a 320 and it serves me fine. Regardless of the engine size, all the W140 models "ride" the same (don't mistake ''ride'' with ''perform''). Yes, the 320 puts a lot of stress on the transmission (because of the weight and tiny engine) but its livable.

On the rims, you have to go with 20"s to get a low profile look. 18" and less look small on this big machine. If you get 20"s, get 245/35/20 tires and not the 255/35/20 because a smaller tire make the rims look bigger. However, the smaller tires will burn out faster (about 12k miles).

As far as being ghetto, so many people use the term like its a catch phrase, but few really understand the meaning. No matter what you do to the car, some will love it, some will hate it, but what's most important is that you're happy with it.

Since you're in the mood for after-market accessories, I would consider changing your grill with the W140 S600 grill to complement the rims. That grill gives the W140 and even more massive look.

Just my 2 cents.

Here is mine the ///AMG Monoblock II rims...
BTW i do agree that 18's do nothing to the car regarding to make it look lower. I suggest nothing less than 19's.

Fast Eddy, what are you talking about. An S500 is by no means a rocket. I dont know what you have for a car but im sure its nothing special. So shut up and go talk some more of your bull**** to someone else.

Ill get you a pic of my benz if i can find it in my hard drive. You can get a look of my wheels and how it is lowered. A W140 is a sweet car whether it is an S320 or a 600 coupe. 18s are an ok wheel. Some wheels are cheap and look very ghetto. If you can find a pair of amg's they are a nice look for your car. If you want to spend over 3000, you have plenty of options.

Did you do my mod on the intake on the next post?

It is a rocket compared to S320---go back and read. 0-60 it may be seen in the rear view mirror but after that, where is S320, on the metro bus route, serving hte comuting public?
Did not do your mod yet, will take Dremmel to the pipes this weekend after a trip to Sears. What a good advice, thank you very much, Sam. My only "mod" so far other than wheels is spare out of hte trunk )
YOur Dremmel mod is the most important I have ever seen on 140 forum.



I'd never expect a mod like this from Dufus Pedersen

hte ...what?

Eddy,
First of all, i dont think you own a mercedes-benz product. You are here just to show off and be part of the crowd. I think its cool to be a faker, which is understandable from ure point of view.

Now the cool stuff: You dont have an S-Class, perhaps you saw a smart-car, which you dont really own. Even if you do, its a clustro-phobic piece of machinery made by chrysler not mercedes-benz. It is so small that "if" i see one on the highway (we dont have those here in America), i would keep distance as i may accidently crush it.

Also, what is "hte" ? Oh, i think ure trying to say "the" i got it!

Do you know what an unwelcome guest is? its somebody who is not invited and comes over, someone who is just not tolerated within a group..

Eddison, i laugh at you.. everytime i look at ure posts, if you were here, you would have been the greatest sport of my life. I like you as you are a special case, a laughing stock, but the other guys dont really need you here, ure not special for them, ure not intelligent and you are definately not welcome. Iam sure your peers have the same idea about you..

Remember the bottom line: "We Know You Dont Have An S Class. Period"
(Did anyone ever told you Eddison, you can buy 7 smart cars for the price of one S320?)

The " other guys" of 140 forum, what do you think? Sounds to me like ///S320 is a deeply wounded creature and trying to bite back like chihuahua. I enjoy it even if only for a very short time.

///S30-you go girl !!! If you were near by I would let you pass me by to make you feel better about yourself and your bus.


"hte" you got right! Everything else wrong but with S320 that is the least of your problems. Prerpare yourself to be blown away by Kev55 in his Ford explorer and other fine Ford products like Expedition for the duration of your ownership of the Benz you picked.

I feel like I'm under pressure from the dynamic duo of Petie Pedersen and Dufus Pedersen, the Batman and Robin of this forum ,apperantly.


I will admit---- the Pedersens are just a better human beings all around, higher beings, in fact ThePedersens may very well be the Fifth Element, just like in the movie I've seen.

Petie, bring on the old man in the old car if he wants to beat the young stalian(me) in the old car and it will add to his life expirience "I'll do it, Don, I'll do it! But I never want to see you again, on or off the stage(forum)"

You totally miss the point about these forums. They are here for normal people to exchange ideas and get positive input for improving their rides. It doesn't matter whether they have an SL55 or a stupid(oops, I mean smart). If a member wants input on lowering an S320, it is personal preference to customize his car. He doesn't need your negative vitriol. Go find some other place to post your childish negative drivel. I am honored to be termed a "dufus" as it seems to be the pinnacle of your expansive vocabulary. By the way, I have 4 Mercedes automobiles that will all run the doors off of whatever S500 you might have. With your room temperature IQ, you should confine yourself to making socialist commentary on the off-topic forum

hey, im just glad people dont hate me....you have my pity, i feel sorry for you

oh and yes, my father has an old car...a CL600 is quite old, he also has a some other outdated automobiles for you to hate....

Z06 Corvette
91 560 SEC
SL600
My CLK 430
My Brothers C32

and only because you pissed me off, you might also like to know that we keep the fast cars in Belgium at my father's business partners house, because we cant drive fast here anyway:

2000 Ferrari 360 Modena Spyder F1
1997 Ferrari 355 Syder

But yes, my father buys old cars (W140) because he cant afford new ones, its not even remotely possible that he may ACTUALLY LIKE the CL600......take a hike

What??? 4 Coupes and no sedans?? That is as one sided as it can ever be. I can assure you that the doors on the MB s500 or S320 or even Toyota Tercell will stay in place regardless of how much you will try to "blow". With your explosive IQ dont you know that its not a pigs strow house?
Once again, with your exotic IQ you just can't step over what I say and save yourselffor something better? I'm starting to feel that your IQ is equal to the horsepower of Yougo--------what do you think, Mr. Biggs?

I knew you were the hater of this world. I think the hate in you comes from the huge burden of the huge IQ you have in your family. I bet you got it from your Dad.
Petie I don't Pitty you and would love to see you overflow with hate, post a pic please.

4 Coupes may not be enough to fit your Dads IQ into. Are there more Coupes on thte way?
My of cause easily fits into the smart car, oh well I guess we are not created equal after all..
