SPOTTED C230/C240 Silver. Hacienda/Gale Ave
Spotted a Silver C230/C240 Sittin in the parking lot near a Popeye's Chicken. I believe it's City of La Puente, Hacienda and Gale Ave.
Was sittin on some Brabus Monoblock VI lowered probably on coilover. What really impressed me is that he was on 18" NON STAGGERED ALL THE WAY around. I believe he was running 225/40/18. It was dark, so I didn't want to get caught or have the owner think I was jacking his ride or something of that nature but I could've sworn that's the tire size I saw. WOW... it looked real real sweet. I've been leaning towards 19" but I might be having a change of mind! He/She probably went this route due to gettin tired of buying staggered tires. I wasn't aware you could go with this set up all the way around?
Sweet ride!

Well, I am certainly glad that has been cleared up! I meant no disrespect to anyone, just clairification!
That car might have belonged to one of our PA's. We have a studio off Gale that is a mock McDonalds for shooting commercials. McDonalds food is great, but sometimes you want to find a bone in your chicken. That's when we dispatch someone to Popeye's.
