BRABUS W168 A-CLASS

HI ALL
from London Town my name is iandiman
and im hoping pick your brains smile,

the people at Brabus are no help at all as my car is discontinue
model so no one will talk to me about parts or spares i can buy to replace for a W168

i have a much loved A160 fully loaded with sports kit and its coming to the end of its life (warranty) so for a bit of fun before it dies im giving it a new lease on life i am adding
Brabus and AMG custom parts to its, so is there anyone out there with info

like can i fit bigger AMG A210 or the W169 Brake Disk and calipers front and rear to my A160 will it just blot on ie no cutting or spacers as its the same car realy

Next brabus w168 Suspension and springs i have just fitted some cool new BRABUS 18' MONOBLOCKS V for the W168 (a very rear find) with flk 225 35 18' tires the ride is sweet supper grip-e, it give my friend 2.8i BMW a run for its money around london hahah

but if i hit a bad dip in the road or run over a speed bump too fast, as you do, or to hard the the wheels scrape the arches so i need better Suspension and springs any recommendations on setting if cant get brabus shocks and springs see pic a6 for the kit needed and if you have a better photo of this please post

then ill like to do the cams, what fun
so if anyone has done an a-class before or you know where on the forum there is some nice info to get me started please post


looking forward iandiman

Hi iandiman,

I don't know if you are able to speak German but you can look up things on the next URL;

Elchfans.de - für alle Fans der Mercedes Benz A-Klasse where all things about the W168 are being published (including guidelines) and I saw some threads about the Brabus monoblock wheels and suspension passing by.

with kind regards,
