H&R Mercedes SLS

There are quite a few ways to improve a car as awesome as the Mercedes SLS AMG. H&R’s suspension kit is indeed one of those ways which is also simple and cheap.

The professional dampers and springs by H&R drop the supercar by 25 mm, giving it a killer look and, by theory, improved handling and stability due to the reduced ride height.

H&R Mercedes SLS HR SLS

This package only costs 549 euros and work pretty well with the standard wheels. If you lower your car, even with the pro kits like H&R, there is a chance that you ruin it. Specially a car like the SLS which has a perfect setup from factory.

It’s not really great fiddling with technical stuff in a supercar!
