Lowering S204 Advice please

[MercS204]

hi,

looking to lower my C220 CDI estate.
I wanted to get any advice on the matter...

1) what springs are the best (h&r or Eibach etc.)
2) how low should i go?
3) should i roll and pull the arches first?
4) what size wheels fit the best? (looking for 18's)

cheers,
jon

More info on your car would be good

Sport is lowered, SE isn't lowered. If it's a sport you'll need to calculate how much it's lowered by and then see how much further you'd like it lowered as it might not need much

It's SE so I'm thinking 30mm front and rear then maybe some smaller Spring plates?

H&R Springs. Used them personally for my W204 C180K & C63. Excellent!

Dropped by 30mm in total - 20mm as my C180K is sport

No need for rolled arches unless u are going for low ET wheels.

18's needs to be at least ET45 to clear rear arches.
