I think BRABUS makes a Airmatic lowering control unit that you can install to change the ride height settings.

S Class (and othercars with air suspension) can be lowered by changing parameters in software but to what purpose?

The suspension already lowers at speed and if the normal height is lowered it will cause the car to be closer to bump and therefore worsen the ride quality.

Software changes require STAR DIAGNOSTICS or similar.

i want to bring it down a 1 or 2 inches i have these rims coming in that will fit nice but there will be a big gap between the fender and wheel. This software is it simething i can try to buy or do i have to go to like the dealer or something? i checked up on those brabus modules and they pretty costly.
