recieved my bilsteins in the mail today
 

I got four new Bilstein HD's to fit onto my 300SD today. I would normally do this myself but as i'm off at college i'm having a sun tire put them on, as well as two new michelin MVX4's on the front end, and then the next day having it aligned. I had to settle on getting it aligned at a "goodyear" but a european specialist place sends all their mercedes/BMW's and Porsches to get aligned there, so hopefull it will be alright. The reason i settled for this is that i'd have to wait untill the 21st to get into the $tealer. I really can't wait, i've been longing for a stiffer ride since the first time i drove it, and hopefully the new michelins coupled with all new bilstein heavy duty's will do the trick. I'll let you all know how it drives when it's done, i should have good news to report :D

Good luck!

I need to replace my front shocks. However replacing the rear ones definitely made the car much more stable when taking sweeping corners at high speeds ;) I think the W123 looks really bad from the outside (body roll), however its grip is amazing.
