Can H&R springs lower my 03 E500 with airmatic ?

Hi,

I just talked to a rep at a local shop here in the Tampa Bay area and he told me that they could lower my 2003 E500 by getting some H&R springs....I guess they could lower it by almost 1.4"
I thought in order to lower cars with airmatic suspensions you'd need to do something to the ECU ...let me know if that is possible .......THANK YOU

Any help or advice would be appreciated

Sold - CLK500
being airmatic you dont have springs.. you have air bags.. you could either get a lowering module from brabus etc.. or go cheap and do the link mod... basically trick the car to make it go lower. i dont know the full details but it can be done very cheaply
