W219 CLS63 AMG, W208 CLK55 AMG
Blacked out grill & logo, roof wrapped, lowered, and new Concavo CW-12 wheels with Pirelli Nero GT's. Anyone got a line-up or ideas on lightly tinting the brake lights?

I have a light tint wrap on my headlights and same on all clear lenses (corners, mirror lamps, even reverse lens). I wasn't sure if I really wanted to murder out the car. Sometimes less is more. Too many cheaper cars around my area going that route and I feel it's already played out.

Cls 55 amg w219 model 2005
Tyres and more
Hi guys!
I just bought my cls 55 amg, w219, model 2005.
I have a number of questions which I hope you and your experience will be able to answer.
1) The tyres clearly need to be changed. Currently the front wheels use 255/35/19, while the rear ones use 295/30/19. I know that the rear ones should be 275/30/19. Which dimension should I buy? Will it be OK if I buy the 295/30/19, or this will cost me in stability? When I accelerate, I feel kind of unsafe as the rear part of the car acts as if it rolls on very small stones... It makes me feel unsafe. Is it because of the old tyres? Is it because of the dimensions I currently use? Note that I have conducted the alignment and weight controls, and the camber is OK...
Any suggestions regarding the brand of the tyres? Does anyone use the nexen tyres?
UOTE=VelocitE55;1125961]Well people, the CLS55 has been out for a while now and I thought it was time to start a CLS55 Picture Thread. Please post pics of your CLS55's because there is no hotter car right now.

To my knowledge, the front ones are 255/35/19 and the rear ones are 285/30/19 as I have them on my car. so I don't know about the 295/30/19!
regarding the brand, I had put on my car all season Bridgestone, but I don't like them as they don't have a good grip. I suggest you use 2 sets (summer and winter). the Michelin pilot sport are the best for our cars so aim for them and you wont regret it
Regarding the instability @ high speed, this could be caused by lots of things. first sort out your tires, then see if it still the same then you need to visit the dealer or an alignment shop.
Good luck

Very nice pics for your first post.
Really good fitment.
I think I may have seen your car around "IF" you're somewhere in O.C.
