Thumbs up adjustable air rides

Well i lowered my s500 1 inch using adjustable air rides height sensor arms and it took 30 minutes and $250 including parts & labour and the car looks great and i feel very minimum ride difference.
I highly reccomend these guys if any one is interested in lowering.

I lowered my 06 S55 with that kit. Easy install and it works great.

Highly recommended!

I have been perfectly happy using lowering links on both my vehicles and many of my customers vehicles also. I simply feel the lowering modules are not worth the price. Also IMO, these newer Mercedes already have enough electronics, why add more if you dont have to?
