pics of my car... newbie

newbie here... trying to load some pictures of my car, hopefully it works.

still debating whether to get exhaust or not.

C230 diamond black. Eibach Pro-kit springs, #1 rear paddings, flat hood emblem, LM-6 replicas 19x8.5 fronts and 19x9.5 rears. custom 7 mm spacers fronts and 8.1 mm rears. Q 28 tint all around.

Welcome aboard...I'm not feeling the rims on your car, but still a very nice ride. IMO, I always see those rims more suited for the SL. Are you going to pump some scratch into the audio system?

One man's trash is another man's treasure.

And i'm getting some treasure saving your pics to my computer!

I've never seen those rims on a C-Class and to me, they definately look awesome!!

If you would be so kind, could you please some full sized pics to my email? Thanks!

I've been there too. My E55's system is OK, but the subwoofer system is limited and I was thinking on the lines of adding an amp/sub upgrade on your car. The audio system on my sister's C230 Kompressor isn't very strong.

yes i'm using stock shocks. the place i got it done said it would be a waste of money to get new shocks since my car is new. thinking of getting Koni shocks later in the future.

got the wheels through eBay. from "velocity motoring". email and ask for Peter, he's very friendly and helpful. bought two set of rims through him. 18s and 19s of the same kind. the front wheels would not clear the front shocks and calipers, so i had to get custom spacers with hub centric. got the spacers made at "design deluxe". 7 mm fronts and 8.1 mm rears. spacers was 65 bucks each!!!
