Sping and Bilstein ?'s again for W126 cars

Hi,
Besides H&R and Eibachs spings are there any other sping makers out there for 126 cars?
Does any one know if there are perfomance spings that do not lower the car? I just installed the H&R sport spings using the large coil pads and I am not happy with the stance of it. Too low for my tastes. I will probably change them out after the winter.

Also

I just looked at Bilstein's website and they do not list Sport Shocks for this car, only HD and comfort. Do they make a sport shock for this car?


Thanks,
Dan

There isn't a sport shock for this model unfortunately. There have been a couple of other aftermarket springs listed, Jamex, and one or two others that you might find with a search.

Matt.

Koni offers adjustable shocks for your car as well!! I used them on my 280E! they work very well.

How do the Koni compare to the Bilsteins HD with regards to firmness?
Thanks,
Dan
