Hey guys,

Took a few shots with the 5d Mark II w/ 50mm last night. A couple life style-ish shots.

Car is all stock, but I'm waiting on 19" OEM Euro Multi Spokes & Springs , I'll do another shoot when that comes in.

You worried about flooding where you are in that picture?

Just kidding, just kidding... great photoshoot

Helms

nice photoshoot!

xcharlesy

thanks guys

Roswell

Very nice pics! When & where r u getting the OEM 19's? They will transform the look of ur car compared to the OEM 18's.

xcharlesy

Thanks!

From our very own C-63AMG forum member, who has also supplied several other members!

I'll definitely report back. Very excited to do a "OEM plus" look.

yazid

cool shoot! well done!

Roswell

Can't wait to see them on ur car.. Sam has been great so far helping us get the OEM 19's across to US shore.. At a decent price may I add.

sweet pics charles


Meng, are you hinting at getting another set of oem 19s? you know, as the backup for your oem 19s that you mount on your car when you store it for winter

xcharlesy

Haha nah man, only 1 set to come. Hopwfully the weather starts to get a bit better soon and I can take the car out more!

Roswell

Tim, I would get another set for sure... but I would have to find another wife. LOL

gthal

Before we can help you with that decision, we need to see pics of her

Dads C63

Great pics!! The new wheels will really make a difference!

Roswell

LOL, she would chop my but if I ever posted her pic on a car forum. Lol

Btw, do u think u will rub with 275/30/19 on ur OEM 19's with 10mm spacers?

gthal

Depending on the tire it might... with PSS you would be VERY close to the fender IMO and would probably rub. Without the spacer I think you would be fine.

Sorry OP... this is off topic.

Roswell

Thanks for the infos. I just don't like how sunk in the wheels are, but at the sane time 255/30/19 is weak. Lol

xcharlesy

I appreciate the info, can anyone tell me what the deal is with spring pads? I'm going to run H&R's with OEM 19 Mult Spokes w/ the OEM tire size, but eventually change to a 275 in the rear, (or a larger tread).

What do you think I should do about pads?

Fung63

alot of ppl just used the oem ones. I'm probably going to do the same.

Roswell

The OEM pads makes the car sit lower in the rear compared to the front. The thicker 17mm pads will raise the rear a bit & make the drop even.

U will not rub with ur OEM 19's no matter if u use 255/30 or 275/30.

xcharlesy

So 17mm pads in the rear, and OEM in the front? Where do you acquire 17mm pads?

Roswell

Correct, the pads can be purchased for 20$ /pair at the dealership.

xcharlesy

Do you happen to have the part no.?

Roswell

Sure do.. Even pics of the pads:
