The compact-yet-powerful Mercedes A-Class, whether in its sedan or hatchback body, represents an excellent starting point for customization. Now, German suspension maker H&R ships all kinds of lowering springs for it.
The full package costs €281 and drops the ride height by between 25 and 35 mm (1” – 1.4”) on both axles, specific numbers depending on your particular model and suspension type. The sported-up A35 AMG (W177) is a notable exception: you pay €319 for a drop of 25 mm (1”) at the front and 15 mm (0.6”) at the rear.
Whichever your choice, the upgrade should make the budget-friendly Stuttragt compact a pleasure to drive, with reduced rolling and better overall looks. Those seeking to align the wheels perfectly within their arches may additionally buy Trak+ wheel spacers (starting from €45 per axle).
