LOL! Im actually still in the process of getting my works back on. I have the spacers but i still need to get two new rear tires for the 10 inch rears. Of course this will be for show purposes, its not like ill be driving super hard on this setup Im still waiting for spacers for the front so i only test fit one rear.

25mm spacer



Rear fitment (225/40 stretch on a 10 inch wheel)





It rubs ever so slightly, ill have to shave some metal tab and pull it a bit to make it clear.

I do however love the AMG Style 3's

With my genetically passed-down affinity for cubs, those rims wouldn't last more than a month with me.

That is one serious spacer.

sorry, not keen, to me (i guess i'm getting old) they don't look as good as previously

I think i'm just biased, because i have always hated rims being too wide for the tyres, personal choice i guess

now you see i quite liked that tint, because it gave the lights a dark metallic look, which blended well with the deep black of the bodywork

You inspired me to get a roof rack haha. Frame mounts are way more convenient No hassle with taking off your front wheel, just dismount and go
