H&R sports and that is the only available option for 4matic from H&R. No super sports. Don't wanna go too low anyway cause my offsets are low.

In case you are wondering... Front is 36ET with 235/35-19 8.5 wide (rub on inside carpet when turning on a bump). Rear is 38ET with 265/30-19 9.5 wide - rub as hell so I had a good rim machine shop to shave off 1/4" inch so it's probably sitting at 44ET but again rub on turning on a medium pothole with ppl sitting at the back. Other than that, I have no complaint with the rubbing. I don't want to give up this rim even though it's used. I think it fits quite nice with a clean aggressive look.

BTW I want to thank all of the members in this forum that had assisted me with my mods. You guys are the best

No I will not be converting to quad exhaust. Instead, MCD Motorsport does offer a carbon fiber diffuser with big fin for the dual exhaust which is good enough for me. So I will keep my dual exhaust and maybe in the future, mod the exhaust. I dont want my rear to be like the c63 although I do think they are very aggressive but maybe just a bit too much for me. In my personal taste, I like it to be able to distinguish from one to another. Thats why I dont want to debadge my car. But Hey, who knows?! I might change my mind in the future! hahaha

I agree with you sir, I feel that its becoming too much of a norm for the Cs to be modded with C63 style exhaust and its becoming a little common now.
