The facelift W212 is so mean looking!! I drove one recently and the transmission/engine is glorious, such an impressive top end in comparison to the M273/722.6 which is old school by today's standards. Can't imagine what a tuned one feels like, who are you tuned by? I'm sorry if you already mentioned it but what wheels are those? Verde Axis?

I went for the conservative drop to avoid any rubbing, but now I think I want to go lower. Was it difficult to adjust the height? And are you running wheel spacers to give that flush look?

Probably just proper offset, I've always been curious what an M278 V8 sounds like muffler deleted. Or, alternatively, just catless downpipes with stock mufflers you think that would give it a good sound?

Drop looks perfect and love the wheels. I'm considering getting the same wheels for summer but probably 19's and use the stock wheels for winter.

So let me ask you a question: do you feel "comfortable" running an 0.7" diameter difference (front to rear diameters) on a 4matic?

When you drive under 60~80 km/h. It is still very comfy. butter smooth.
When it pick up speed, if the road condition isn't very nice. It gets bumpy.
It is a lot stiffer. But i love how it looks and how it takes corners.
Love it in every way.
