Well, they run about 160 or so plus hardware..

Even w/ lowered 126's you Really need to try hard to smash the oil pan. Only once did I squash one.. Running a yellow through an unfamiliar intersection, right as I was about to go through I look down...Uh oh...WHAM... Didn't break/crack the pan but it was less then a month old which was frustrating.

If the wheels fill out the wells nicely/like a modern car your car is most likely lowered.. You can always check the springs. If they are black, wipe some of the grime off looking for an H&R. If they are Red or White you have AMG springs.

There are some other options for springs but I'd wager that's what you are most likely going to find.
