New Wheels and Tires

I want to share some pictures of my new wheels. I got a great deal on a set of brand new wheels and tires (less than 2 months and 1000 miles) from a member here that sold his C 300. He bought the set up from Discount Tire and also got the additional warranties that were able to be transferred. So I stopped by the local Discount Tire and they checked the balance and installed the new wheels and transferred the warranty free on my way home last night.

Ive been looking for AMG style 18" wheels but these came up at a great price ready to bolt on, new TPMS, Nitto Motivo 245/40-18 and 255/35-18 on TSW Rivage 45 frt offset and 53 rear offset.

The lighting is so bad that I can't see what the spokes look like. Got any closeups?

Yes Vic I'd like to do a mild drop next , maybe 1.5 " so I don't have any clearance problems.

Any suggestions on springs I've used Einach on other cars and see H and R on this forum
