mmm those are hot..
well the biggest issue with getting a 190 low is the front strut. No one makes one short enough unless you go the coil route. Like ground control. So my solution is simple..

the picture links r dead, but this is my solution. Good thing that e36 strut housing bolt up to a 190 or else id be in trouble.
right now im just on chopped 124 springs. i had a h&r cup kit, but theyre just to soft

looks good, i would love to know what your doing to lower it. Right now on mine i am running some newer wheels off a c230, they don't look bad. Currently im trying to source a set of classic campagnolo wheels, hopefully these, and I have a fried who has a machine shop so i could get creative with the paint/finish.

only 77,000 miles on the odometer? guessing someone swapped earlier, but why for another diesel? otherwise, things got another 150,000 miles left on it, so I say bag it up!

Centra Type 31. 16x8 +11
had to space/roll/cut the front fenders to make up for the lack of budget camber plates....
current tire is a 205/40 front 205/45 rear.. the front just isnt right for me probably going to change to a 195/45
& yes the wheels are slightly concave

Rolled it out for a little shakedown.. Seems to be pretty much buttoned up now. Far from complete. Interior is still gutted.

Haven't been around for a while, but finally got workin on the benz. She's sittin a little sad, but she coming along.
Diesel is up & running just need to button up all the loose ends. Got some wheels I'm working on & still need tires, but test fit shows lot of fender work is in my future. As for suspension I'm still working out the kinks. As in strut travel & ride height.
Anyways here's a pic
