attn: Tire Rack, suspension question

my friend has a brand new cup kit suspension from H&R. it was meant for a W210 E320.

would they fit on my W210 (same chassis) E430?

details on my car: 1998 E430 V8

i checked the H&R site and there are no cup kit suspensions offered for the E430, only springs. please help?

depends on the weather
while it would physically bolt in with no problem the front springs are not designed to support the heavier V8 engine .....


would it work ..... probably but, you will experience premature spring sag because of the heavier engine
