if you can only get springs, cut 'em till you get the height you want.

Yup, I'm with FLS on that. H&R drop springs for my 210 were a tease. I'm on cut oem coils. I've had to go back twice and cut. Don't trip, slam the belly out that benz =)

how much money you got? tons of options, money is the only limiting factor.

It's possible to run some coil sleeves. I see alot of older BMW and Benz guys running custom Ground Control setups from other cars. On stock struts/shocks you will be limited to the stroke/length they have though. So to get really slammed you will probably have to do some custom work. If there is a lowering spring kit available for your car... you might be able to cut a small coil out of it to get some more low out of it. Some cars you really have to do your homework on. So good luck.

dont waste your money on lowering springs. cut the oem springs. on my w202 i had h&r then eibach, then cut h&r and cut eibach. in the end nothing rode better than cut oem springs. spend the money on new shocks.
