If you are trying to lower a w212... know that ANY module would only control the REAR ride height. The front needs old fashioned lowering springs. Do the adjustable links everyone uses... unless you think you need to be constantly adjusting your rear ride height for whatever reason.

yeah, the module is nice and easy, but something like this is all you really need: https://www.ebay.com/itm/MERCEDES-E-...-/122650138754

wagons have bags in the back and steel springs up front. gotta get springs to lower the front, rear can be done with links.

So, as far as I know, there are no Adjustable fronts from H&R for the E63s. So you are set at what height you get. The KW’s + links you can adjust to whatever height you want. BTW, this is moacur from Rennlist.

For me, I did the KW’s plus links first, which was plenty low for most, but I wanted lower, so went to

https://scalesuspension.com/shop/en/...original_color

and completely removed the air from the rears and went full coils with damping. The KW’s ride extremely well, even completely spun all the way down.

Small world, how are ya. Do you have an E63 too? I really don't plan on moving the wagon much so one setting would do. If KW's are still better than that's what i would consider.

Very good and hope you are the same! I do, Have a 2015 E63s sedan, but it is pretty different as I had the rear fenders pulled 2” to match the fronts.

looking great, what size wheels are those?

What's the difference between the Tt & KW? Looks similar, no?

I’m running 9.5 et30 and 11.5 et20. Stock is good at 9.5 et30 and 10.5 et40.

KW’s are just springs and adjustable perches.

255/30 and 305/25 or 245/30 and 285/25 both work great, just depends on how low you go. If you’re lowering just a bit, go 255 and 305.

I am currently running KW HAS Kit for over 3yrs without any issues and love how the ride and the capability of adjustments to your likings. Can't go wrong with KW HAS and pricing is pretty decent too. Not overly expensive.
