E55 Owners - What OEM Spring Pad Sizes?
I am curious. Based on other threads about OEM Spring Pads sizes it seems they 'may' vary - even for the same model. If they vary does that mean that Mercedes has some quality control issues with their spring manufactor and the springs vary in height and the pads are used to correct the varying spring heights. Hmmmmm!
My 2002 E55 has 3 bumps all around.

I am not sure if the rear is visible from underneath the car without removing the wheel.

I recently purchased a 2001 E55 and have #3 spring pads all the way around. Would it be worthwhile to go to #1 all the way around, or would you even notice a difference in ride height. I know it should be about 8mm.
