Hi all,
Just about to order the parts to lower my car (2000 S202 C200 Elegance) just a bit so I can finally fit my 17" alloys. I'm certainly not after a slammed look.
I've pretty much decided on the springs. I'm going with the Eibach Pro-Kit (model 2546.140 - no self levelling if anyone is interested). This will give about a 30mm drop.
I'm also doing the dampers at the same time and am looking at either the Bilsten Sport or Sprint. At the moment I can't decide which ones are more appropriate
The Sport is described as "... for those drivers who prefer a sports suspension but are not particularly interested in lowering the body"
Seeing as I'll be lowering the car, maybe these aren't appropriate.
While the Sprint is described as "The shortened, high-performance shock absorber for lowered sports cars".
(and before anyone says anything, I don't consider my car a sports car either. Just a nice car to ferry my little twins and wife around in safely)
Does anyone have any experience with either damper?
