These genuine Eibach Pro-Kit lowering springs are designed for selected Mercedes-Benz SLK (R170) variants. This listing is organised around the vehicle rather than only the Eibach part number, making it easier to identify the correct kit. The catalogue data below includes engine type, power output, production period and, where supplied, engine code, drive type and body style.

The approximate lowering for this kit is 30 mm at the front and 30 mm at the rear. Eibach Pro-Kit springs reduce the vehicle’s centre of gravity, sharpen steering response and give the vehicle a more purposeful stance while retaining sensible everyday road manners. Actual finished ride height can vary according to factory sports suspension, axle load, optional equipment and the condition of the original components.

Common engine descriptions in the source data include 200 (170.435), 200 Kompressor (170.444), 200 Kompressor (170.445), 230 (170.449), 230 Kompressor (170.447), 230 Kompressor (170.449), 320 (170.465). Always match the exact model, engine, power output, production dates and technical criteria rather than relying on model name alone. Eibach part number: E2552-140.

Lowering Information

OEM versus lowered height: figures are Eibach’s approximate reduction from the applicable standard factory ride height. Vehicles already fitted with factory sports suspension may achieve a smaller additional drop.

Vehicle and Engine Compatibility

Check every column before ordering. Different engines, axle loads, drive systems and factory suspension packages can require different spring kits.

Important Fitment Notes

This product should only be ordered where the vehicle details match the compatibility data above. Registration lookup alone may not identify factory suspension options or axle-load differences. Check VIN, axle-weight and factory suspension information where multiple kits are listed for the same vehicle.
