It's hard to tell the difference in the ride it is stiffer and the steering is more responsive and I dont think there is as much body roll. I would recommend a set, but keep in mind I still have the stock wheels and stock tire size. I love the lowered E420 especially the
way it looks. Now putting them on is anator story we did it without a spring compressor.
I used Eibach.

great post. After reading pluses and minuses, I am going to pull the trigger on a set of H&Rs for the W210. My buddy found a broken spring up front when doing an alignment. He suggested I look into a set of aftermarket springs as he had success with them on a couple of his Benz's.
I will report back.
