The inner fender had to be slightly modified in order to accommodate the tire. It 'scrapes' the inner fender at full lock, but nothing major.

Also, I have a GL450, no sport mode.

Seeing others love their gl550 as much as I love mine make me fill better that I'm not crazy. Crazy that I've found a car that fits me and my lifestyle
Not to mentioned the stairs and thumbs up.

LOVE IT!


We went from a Honda Pilot to a GL320.


Ignoring the Lux factor, they are more similar in design and concept than most anything else in the class up till about 2012.

Finally other companies have purpose built large SUVs that don't share a platform (or at least a platform history) with crappy riding trucks or lightweight minivans.

Thanks!

Speaking of brakes, any recommendations? I was thinking between AMG or Brembo.

I just posted these photos in the "newbie" thread, but figured I'd post them here too. This is my (new-to-me) 2011 GL450 in Palladium Silver.
