Had my K-Sport coilovers installed yesterday, i'm so happy now with the new look and stance

Took some fast pics with my mobile phone. Going to take some better pics with a pro photographer for a car magazine shootout. But for now

 

very nice Magnus.

Are you going to sell me your euro spring set?

thanks,
Rob

 

Looks good! Few questions if you don't mind.

1. How much drop was it?
2. Finger gap?
3. What tires are you running for the front and rear and what brand are they?
4. How's the ride compared from before lowering it?

 

HOLY! that looks SEXY!!

 

Wow...incredible I love your car. How does it ride with the K-Sports? Any tire rubbing or scraping?

 

Thanks alot guys!! Glad you like it as much as i do

Ob1kenobi --> Yes, i'll sell you the Eurosprings Just give me a few days to check shipping cost and so.

JamE55 -->

1. I would guess a 50-60mm drop

2. Finger gap? = No finger gap at all

3. Front is Kuhmo 245/35-19 and rear is Michelin PS2 275/30-19. I'm going to change to 235 in the front, looks better on these rims.

4. Right now the stiffness is in it's softest stiffness mode. So the ride comfort is reaaaally great but still handles much better then before!! But i will adjust it to be a bit more stiff. I'll let you know after i've done that and driven it a bit more.

slownrusty --> I have 245 in the front, so there is a little bit of scraping when you make more then a half turn on the steering wheel at low speeds. Not much, but it's there. At the highway and on the road there is ZERO scraping Fastest iv'e driven so far is 200 Km/h (125 Mph) and there where no scraping. Car handles really great even with the adjustment in it's most "sloppy" way. I'll make it more stiff and let you know how it handles after that!

Took a few more pics with my real camera. Enjoy!

 

Exelent look AB congrats!

I remember you post in some thread the wheels brand & specs. but i'm not search really, you run 19's but what inchs rear/front? 8.5x19 and 9.5x19 right?

Thanks Fabio

They are 19" DPE R08S wheels. Rear is 10" and Front is 8"

 

Cool bro! i like the set-up looks exelent!! very lowered

I know you are in a good country (streets & heights in my country runs like shat... my car scratch the ground many times).. Drive the car some days & pay attention if you don't scratch the ground some times, take care with the exhaust.. The Euro E55's bends the exhaust pipe (driver side) just after the exhaust manifold when touch the ground in hot (Common Issue in the E55's Euro OEM) Take care with your kleemann manifolds.!

Looks Great!! Mine has H & R springs. It appears that coil overs lowers more than just replacing the springs like I did. Can you adjust them or is that the way coil overs look. Do you have any problems with camber?

 

I love this model EClass. I was just imagining having one and what it would look like with my style of mods on it. Looks a lot like this one.

 

looks great Abalone. Im running 235 up front with a 9inch wheel.

 

Wow, looks great!

 

I also totally agree... it looks great and thr stance is just perfecto!
Please do share more details about your camber settings...

 

very nice, that looks really good!!!

 

I'm really not that good on knowing the camber settings, how do i look for that?

I adjusted the dampning today to find out that i've been driving it in the softest mode There are 36 different "clicks" and mine where in Nr 1 = Softest I adjusted it to the hardest setting and WOW the car handles like never before. Really amazing that a W210 can handle like this IMHO Comfort is still pretty good, but of course it's not that sooooft Mercedes comfort. But hey, it's not a S-Class either

 

NICE!!!!!!

 

You can adjust them. Height and stiffness

 

looks good bro. Good job.
i love your ride but i would get rid of the star on your hood and get the flat badge.
otherwise very low

 

I like it just the way it is. I'm not a fan of the flat badge, the star helps me know exactly where the front of my car is when I park.

 

Agreed. I've always been a fan of the star up front.

 

Awesome setup ABALONE!

I haven't bought my second AMG yet, but I'm already looking at mods!

 

DPE's look fantastic, excellent job!

 

this car is sensational!

 

Thanks!!
