Hi all,

I'm looking to lower my E63 wagon and just wondering if anyone had any experience with it.

Initially I was just looking at H&R springs up front with links in the back, then I came across the KW height adjustable spring kit which is quite a bit more at £750 but I like the idea of the adjustable height so I can properly dial it in.

(Pricing is a bit of a con as sets of all four corners for other cars are much the same price)

It looks a decent system and includes new bump stops and seat, my only concern is that it will be an even shorter spring than the H&Rs to account for the adjustability.

Has anyone got a set of these fitted?

For anyone interested I went ahead and bought the KW kit. It turns out the adjustable seat is at stock level on its highest setting so the springs are a decent size and should still give a good ride

I think quite a few E/CLS 63 owners have gone the KW route and are happy with the results. I went the H&R / links route, but if I did it again would go the KW route. The KW kit allows you to lower the front a touch more than the H&R’s, which for me would give the perfect drop.

Thanks bud, normally I would have just gone for springs but now I'm on 20s I wanted to make sure I could get the height right without rubbing anything too often.

Got some decent quality links on the way so hopefully will have it all fitted in a week or so
