Working on a W210

[mike-81-240d]

I was planning on going another coil up front, but I kinda like the rears the way they are lol. I wanna keep the rake and I have #1 pads all around. kinda curious to see how it would look without them and how safe it is to not have them lol


thanks man!

I went from 4 nub pads to no pads when I cut my fronts. You can hear my springs boing really loud when I back outta my driveway over a curb. It's kinda funny to hear.

what model enkei's are those?

If you spray the underside the same colour as the rest of the car... it'll look lower too...
(i've done this on my white 210)

I was actually planning on doing this in the next few weeks! just came up short on funds for the month lol. what prep work went into it?

[siopaolover]

well shit, I cut too much. lol. the springs won't stay in place when there's no load. is this still safe to drive on? haha

Yes, just when you lower the car back down make sure you properly seat them...

sadly, this is as low as I can go for the fronts. The spring hardly stays in place when the car is lifted

and I'm actually looking for some oz aero Is since they're my dream wheels...

great choice! oz amg's 8,5 and 10j 17" was also my option if I have a car like yours
