W203 Eibach lowering springs

[Jim3880]

Hi guys, I’m new to the forum after recently purchasing my 2006 C320 CDI - which I am very impressed with.
I have purchased a set of Eibach pro-kit springs which I am planning to fit with my OEM sport shocks. I have spent literally hours searching (hopefully not just me looking in the wrong places) and cannot seem to find a definitive answer as to which spring pads I need to use on the rear to give a level arch to tyre gap front to rear? Thanks in advance for any recommendations! Jim

How old / mileage are the shocks ?

 

[Jim3880]

They’ve recently been replaced - about 3,000 miles ago!

For anyone interested I finally got around to having these installed.
I used the number 4 spring pads which gave an even arch gap front and rear.
Part number: A210 325 04 84

You changed what the Eibach engineers came up with for aesthetics ?

Do you know why the front has more of a gap ?

 

[Jim3880]

W203’s leave the factory with 1 of 4 spring pads fitted to the rear which varies depending on spec of the car.
The Eibach engineers do not know which spring pad each car has, they don’t make a different spring for each.
The arch gap is even with this set up.

There's going to be pics for and against that one .
