Thumbs up Back in an AMG (intro)

Hello All, Was a regular on this site back in 2005-2007 when I was the proud owner of a c32 AMG. After a few years driving a couple of 3 series BMW's I'm back in the AMG family. Picked up a low mile 2008 ML63 vs buying another new BMW. It's been less than a week but already excited about the customization possibilities (wheels, suspension, tune)

Eurocharged V5 tune is mandatory .

Wheels: Forgestar makes amazing super light weight rotary forged 20s.

Tires: Continential DWS or the new Michelins at just came out in 290/40/20

Brakes: racing brake 2 piece rotors are a must come replacement time
