Thanks Frank, your car is looking hot! I dunno what I'm going to buy at this point, there are so many nice cars coming out in the next few years. I'm gonna take my time on deciding.

the face of the wheels is too close to the stock calipers, so there would be no way a brembo bbk would fit back there. if i use a spacer, which i think would be 7-10mm then i would have some rubbings issues. i think the rear wheel might stick out too much.

Damn, the give/take of having a bling-bling lip!...LOL. Would a 4 piston even fit or even the stock AMG floating caliper? Either way, the front looks very nice! I've gotta decide by next summer what I want to do also.

that would probably be a no. remember my HREs? I had to run spacers in the rear because of the 3" lip and they work perfectly on the 03 C230k sedan and other W203s.

Damn, that's crazy. I didn't know that you were running spacers with your HRE's.
