Question best springs for comfort
OK,

I am after the help of those who have installed just springs in their car.

I have a w203 sedan and will be riding on 18x8/9 wheels and need to get some springs to bring it down a little

What are the best springs for drop and comfort....

comfort is the most important and will probable change the shocks later down the track,..

coilovers are not an option....

Carlssons are made by Eibach and are a little more aggressive drop and spring rate so, that means less ride quality
