hello all
im upgrading my w208 elegance as it didnt really handle too well with tired shocks and ten year old springs, so i have already fitted the following
-eibach springs (35mm lower)
-bilstein b8 sport shocks
-9mm no.2 front spring shims to bring the nose down an extra 8mm(iirc)
-18" O.E. amg wheels 8.5 & 9.5
-MB front camber correction bolts
this made an immeadiate difference, it retains comfort and goes around corners much better but after driving my friends w208 430 avantgarde this has raised the a new question about anti-roll bars
the 430 stays much flatter while pulling away and cornering so i think this is the next bit to add to achieve the handling responses im after
i have been looking on t'internet and eibach also do an thicker anti-roll bar kit, great! 'next on the list'
but then i thought that MB may have several roll bars available for the car.
so a couple of questions if you dont mind chaps
1. can anybody please tell me what different thickness' anti-roll bars are available off the MB shelf for w208?
2. are there camber correction bolts of any other camber adjusting system available for the rear suspension of w208, MB or aftermarket?
(MB colingdale say no but also didnt seem bovvvered!)
thanks in advance
