Are they the same as a W201? Forgetting damper rates etc.

Phil ,

They are much stronger , remember I wrongly ordered a W124 set-up for my 190 3.6 , and you gave me an H & R set that fitted perfectly ?

Do you mean the rate is stronger? Or physically? Did the W124 kit fit?

Just need to know if the casings are the same really.

Ah but alot of that will be down to the heavier weight of the springs. Lovely either way, cheers.
