Nope. I have TEIN Super Street (prototypes). Even though they used my car for the R&D on the S-tech's, Basic's and Super Street's, they ended up leaving the Super Street's on my car (which I can't complain about).

Rims sizes won't work. Check the wheel thread to see sizes people have gone with. I think there are only a couple (non-widebody) w203's that had 20's and they both had slight rubbing issues.

The lowering module (kleemann, brabus, renntech, I think awiner did a writeup on all of them when he was purchasing one for his W215) just lowers your car (airmatic or abc)

I debadged because I feel that it looks much cleaner than having all the badges on the back. Also, I love when people who don't know about Benz ask me, "What kind of Mercedes is that?"
