Buy my Carlsson lowering module. It it is the capri blue S550 just like yours in the links below. The car has 29000 miles now and not one problem with the module. Installation is easy and I still have box and instructions.

None, no rubbing (wheels were built to be accomadated without rolling fenders), dealer did not even know when I took in for wheel alignment. To be honest a little more road feel but I guess that comes with Carlsson's suspension tuning.

The lowering module works out great and very practical. We normally use renntech and found no issues with it what so ever. You can shoot me a quick email stefan@d2autosport.com for a qoute.

I used the Brabus module and like it. To make the 21s fit the had to roll the fenders, but no rubbing or ride problems.

There's No Need For A Module. You Can Lower Your S Class For About $3.00 In Parts And Takes Ten Minutes To Do. If Your Looking For The Look Then A Module Is Just A Waste Of Money!

Because people don't know how it works.

If washers costed $200 each, people would think different.

Why Would You Pay Thousands Of Dollars For A Module That Does The Same Thing As Using A Spacer? $100,000 Dollars Or $10,000 Car, You Tell Me Why I Should Waste A Thousand Dollars On A Module? Does the same damn thing
