The AST Lowering Springs for the 1996-2001 Mercedes-Benz C-Class (W202) are high-performance suspension components designed to improve handling and aesthetics. Crafted from high tensile chromium-silicone wire, these springs are selected for their strength and consistency by AST engineers. Each spring undergoes a meticulous manufacturing process, including cold winding, heat treatment to enhance hardness and reduce internal stresses, and individual shot peening. The springs are then phosphate treated and powder coated, ensuring durability and resistance to corrosion. Featuring progressive rates on most vehicles, these springs provide a smooth ride while lowering the vehicle's stance by 40mm at the front and rear, enhancing both appearance and cornering performance.

Designed specifically for 1996-2001 Mercedes-Benz C-Class models, these springs are a direct bolt-on upgrade for the factory suspension. They are suitable for street use, offering improved handling and a lowered profile without sacrificing ride quality. Installation involves replacing the original springs, and the kit includes the set of four springs. These lowering springs are ideal for enthusiasts seeking a sportier look and enhanced driving dynamics on daily drivers or spirited street driving. Compatibility is confirmed for W202 chassis vehicles, making them a reliable upgrade for this model range.
