FS: Koni Yellow Adjustable Shock + H&R Springs |W203|

I have just bought myself a set of coilovers, so I am trying to sell my previous setup, which I had a great experience with.

I am selling a Front Pair of Koni Yellow Adjustable Shocks, and a complete set of H&R Springs(29392). The setup was used gently on my C32. They have been used for approximately 7500 Miles. I am selling these for $400.

Thanks for looking.


Here are the pictures I took today:

How did you like the setup? Does it only come with the front struts? Did you use stock shocks for rear? May I ask why you are changing to coilovers? Sorry about all the questions, I might be interested.

No problem
Personally I really liked the setup for daily driving; better looking, better handling. Yes, I only have the front struts for sell. I was going to run only the springs, but then I figured I would like the front to be more stiff, so I added the Koni Dampening Adjustable shocks in the front and used stock shocks in the rear. Lately, under the influence of some car fanatic friends, I decided to change to coilovers for the better adjustability. Thanks.

Never seen your car before, DPEs? Your car is looking good!

I know someone who might be interested with the springs ONLY locally.

Thanks for the inquiry. PMs sent.

The reason I sent PMs is that I am more than willing to sell these the Shocks and Springs separately, but I just have to make sure they will go to different hands at the same time.

Hi AJ,

Thanks, but I will have to check for fitment on your car. I will make sure and then let you know.

I really think so. but double check please! It's just like using your shocks and installing these springs.

I mean your shocks and CLK500 shocks should the same. Are the CLK500 shocks sport shocks? I do know sport shocks should be strong enough to handle aftermarket springs like H&R. Your shocks aren't sport shocks by any chance?

I meant the same in terms of fitment, but I think if your car has sport shocks and the shocks you're getting are sport shocks too, then these shocks are the same in terms of fitment and dampening..

I tried to STFF in W209/W203 section and didn't get anything. I'd post your questions there and get some answers if I were you.I'm sure the W203/209 suspension experts will answer your questions easily..

SORRY, not helping much here.. But, LMK if you have any other simple questions that I can help with

Hi, the Koni shocks will also fit the W209, so yes they will fit your car The part number for these are 8741-1412SPORT. As for the ride quality, honestly, I like it; its very sporty for city driving. The stock shocks in the rear did great for me.
