How do you like 'em? Have you put enough miles on yet to notice the difference over bumps and such with the lower profile tires? Just asking 'cause I ordered some 19s and starting second guessing if I should have gotten 18s instead.

Richard2011 03-05-2012 11:26 PM

Those look very nice!

Is that an OEM 2012 C63 grille? I see that it's a 2-piece with one bar in the middle.

@mhad2480
im going a little slower on humps, bumps, curbs etc. maybe its just psychological. I was also thinking of the 18's cause thats what MB's upgrade option. Im sure there is a reason why they only offer 18's for upgrades. But i really like the look. THe drive is a bit different.

@Richard2011

No that is not OEM c63 grille. I bought that off ebay. I like the single fin look. thats the closest replica i could find. bought it for $140 shipped.

they are nice factory looking wheels, go good with the car. as tanktube stated, a little lower please.......you wont regret it

2012c350 03-07-2012 11:20 AM

I like the wheels and grill a lot. Very nice. Is that factory ride height, or did you lower it?

blue00r6 03-07-2012 11:55 AM

I also love that grill! And I'm curious if thats a stock suspension set up as well...

I think i'm going to order that grill now :D

feri 03-07-2012 12:01 PM

thank you great car you have !love the style

Richard2011 03-07-2012 12:22 PM

Yeah. That grille is amazing! The separation of the grille where the hood meets the bumper flows a lot better than the previous C63-style grille. I might order that grille along with those wheels this summer!

TexFinn 03-07-2012 12:39 PM

Very nice looking wheels. :zoom: AND... They are not black. :y

coolvi 03-07-2012 12:43 PM

IMO just the right amount of mods to make it noticeable yet minimalistic. :y

Awesome grille, indeed! I stayed with stock grille for 2 1/2 years until Dec when it came out. Love it so much when later on the seller came out with chrome silver and full black (matte) variants, I bought the silver one to better match the Palladium silver.

jaeguyoon 03-07-2012 04:53 PM

can I ask how much you paid for the wheels and the tires?
