The AST Lowering Springs for the 1997-2002 Mercedes-Benz CLK-Class (W208) are high-performance suspension components designed to improve handling and aesthetics. Constructed from premium high tensile chromium-silicone wire, these springs are carefully handpicked by AST engineers for their quality and metal consistency. Each spring undergoes a rigorous 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 to ensure durability and longevity, surpassing the lifespan of the vehicle. Featuring progressive rates on most versions, these springs provide a balanced ride quality with improved stability during cornering and reduced body roll, making them suitable for enthusiasts seeking both performance and visual enhancement.

Designed specifically for the 1997-2002 Mercedes-Benz CLK-Class (W208), these lowering springs reduce ride height by approximately 40mm, offering a more aggressive stance and improved aerodynamics. They are a direct replacement for the factory springs, ensuring straightforward installation without modifications. These springs are ideal for street use, track days, or daily driving where enhanced handling and a lowered profile are desired. The kit includes the necessary springs for both the front and rear suspension, providing a complete upgrade. Compatibility is limited to the specified model years and chassis, ensuring optimal fitment and performance.
