W209 - W163
Luke, Another Question Regarding W209 Suspension
I'm thinking of getting ASA ST4's... can you get PM a good quote for 19x8.5 and 19x9.5 ASA ST4's in silver with the polished lip along with 235/35/19 and 265/30/19 tires?
Also, I'm hearing the W203 C-Class cupkits can be used on the W209s, is this true? I want a good drop, I don't want to use springs, so any chance the H&R Cupkits will work? Any deals on coilovers?

depends on the weather
while I no of several people who have used w203 H&R suspension on W209 cars it is not optimized for handling in that chassis so, it is not recommended ..... but, if you are going more for looks than performance (which is what it sounds like with the 19" wheels) you should be fine
