Rotors and spacers installed

Got them installed over the weekend. Some before and after pictures. Sorry for the crappy phone pix, but you get the idea. The specs are 13mm front and 15 rear. Stock suspension.

Rear looks great, front sticks out too much, IMO.

Ha ha, I have the opposite opinion; I thought the rear 15mm is too aggressive but the front 13mm is just right. FYI, rear tires stick out about several mm from the well where as the fronts are flushed with the fender.

Can't tell by the pics Car looks great either way, which rear diffuser is that? Any plans on lowering it?

I have 10mm in the back, and 10mm in the front (which I think stick out too much [but that's just preference], I may take them off) with coilover, I was rubbing in the back, so I had to go down to 265's.

Thanks! Your car is awesome too; I wanted a white c63, but wasn't lucky enough to track one down.

Thanks. That's a MCD diffuser. I don't plan on lowering it as roads around here are torn up from all the constructions.

You were running 275s in the back before? What brand?

oooo .. naiceee .. based on your pics, i think 10mm all around should do it for me .. thing is im running 275 in the back, worried that a spacer thicker than 10mm would stick out

Do 275s bulge out a lot? I think you should be alright up to 12mm if they don't.
