That's such a sweet ride dude. Now if only I could convince MBUSA to import the C55 Wagon I'd be in hog's heaven and I'd have a cooler C-Wagon than you

You´re the best doing mod´s

fantastic job, the car looks incredible!!



I was thinking about the same mod for my c-coupe. At this moment I have the old AMG styling III rims.

Which size of tire do you use at the rear wheels?

Any diference at the front? So old rims were 7.5x18 and new are 8.0x18 I think.

Hey Steve! How are you? Its been a while.
By the way do you still have problems with your ride height? Is this the raised height version?

the rims are from the CLK63 and the tire- and rimsizes are:

front: 225/40-18 on 8,0x18 ET34
rear: 255/35-18 on 8,5x18 ET30

the tires are pirelli P-zero nero

The actual ride height in these pictures is what I have been riding for the last 60.000km (37.500 miles) and is raised compared to the ride height I had for the first 2 days after I modified the car.

greetingz,
Any spacers required to clear the coilovers? Also, are those the all season (M+S) P-Zero's?

Wouldn't that make them coilovers? From one of Steve's earlier posts I thought he said they're just called cup kit, but are actually the same as coilovers in the US.
