theunderlord & Kevwood thnx for your comment.
im from Abudhabi "UAE". i have been visiting this forum for quite some time now but i didn't have the chance to sign up and share stuff until i saw couple of posts on the CL that made me buy a CL63 and to put these ideas into action and here it is and i have to say that i miss the feeling on Upgrading & customizing. My previous car was a G55 2011 which tbh is just a waste to change anything in it.

well you will have 2-3 options i think ... the one i went with is
Michelin
295/25 21 Rear
255/30 21 Front i find the 255 is kinda small on the wheels but ive alrdy paid installed so ill need to suck it up till it gets worn off maybe...
you can also use ...
Pirelli flat tire "stiff tires"
275/30 21
275/30 21
and yes all the wheel size comes 21x10

I've had my eyes on a G55. Was it not that good that you sold it too quickly?
Nice black out car. I like the way you did with the led fogs.

G55 is a whole new adventure for anyone who haven't driven the car it just simply takes the SUV to a whole new level.
its very difficult for me to answer it but ill give it my best shot...
Great car overall...but it has BUTs ... too stiff of a ride (ive changed the suspension for more comfortable ride a week after i bought the car made the driving experience a bit less sportier) there not much room at the back seats and on top of that it tooooo expensive for its value... AC is **** too.
other than that u can frostbite the car and throw a fireball on it and it will still work like no tomorrow...what i love about it is that it combined the classic original tough body shape the endurance the stamina with high tech performance and interior.
not to forget im single i dont have a family to pick up and i always ride it either alone or with 2 friends..
would i recommend anyone to buy the ..HELL YAAA! damnit just writing those words made me miss the g55
PS ... my comments would have been "different IF" i sold the car lower than the price i paid for it.

i test drove the 275 for maybe a mile with turns etc ... and 265 for a whole day and i have to say the 265 was really close to rub... what im using now is what i've mention above and its smooth like a silk.

any problem with the ML wheels offset? Any chance you could give us a part number for the wheels. They looks awesome!!!

your absolutely right, i mean after one month with the yellow callipers ive noticed it would have been much better if they were RED.
