The MTS Street A-klasse W176 Inox is a height-adjustable coilover kit from MTS Technik for the Mercedes A-klasse W176 / CLA C117, model years 2012 to 2019. Street is the standard setup from MTS Technik: a good balance between comfort and firmness, for daily use and the occasional track day or drift day.

On the Inox version, the damper bodies are made of stainless steel, so road salt and moisture don’t stand a chance.

Fitting and delivery

The MTS Street A-klasse W176 Inox replaces the original dampers and springs and fits on the original mounting points.

• The stated lowering applies relative to the standard suspension. If the car has a factory sport suspension, the lowering will be smaller.
• When fitting, check the clearance between tyre or wheel and the strut: at least 5 mm. If it is less, use approved wheel spacers.
• Tip for adjusting the rear: remove the height adjuster, set the spring seat to the new position and refit the adjuster.
• After lowering, have the wheel alignment checked, because camber and toe change as well.

Delivery: 4 to 7 working days while manufacturer stock lasts.

The MTS Street A-klasse W176 Inox combines stainless steel damper bodies, Eibach springs of 50 and 100 N/mm and up to 40 mm of lowering for the Mercedes A-klasse W176 / CLA C117.

Why choose the MTS Street A-klasse W176 Inox?

With the MTS Street A-klasse W176 Inox you choose the setup MTS Technik itself recommends as standard: enough lowering for a tight stance, and a character that doesn’t become tiring on the road. If you also drive in winter or the car is parked outside, the Inox version pays for itself: stainless steel doesn’t rust, so the thread of the height adjustment doesn’t seize up. If you mainly drive in summer, the Gold version is a more affordable alternative.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between Gold and Inox?
