NEW CCW's Powder Coated Matte-blk 18x13 18x10 same size as the SLR 722 GT Race Cars
though weigh only 23-24 lbs..
Now the Double-Stuffed Oreo's!!! (Yes I bought 8 tires 2 complete sets as I couldn't decide which I would like better) 345/30 BFG Drag Radials or Toyo Drags 335/30 both are tasty on the streets no milk required lol..
PS Another HUGE Thanks to Chris @FXAutoDesign (Forum Sponsor here) For making this ALL seemless/perfect transaction truly GREAT person/owner/shop to deal with

More.. And yes after new wheels it needs to be lowered further, dropped on its ballzz is the correct term I believe
Yeah the 20"s look better but are purely lame Fashion wheels, as I'm into Pure Perf & speed, the 20"s weighed nearly 76 lbs each vs 18"s @ 52-53 lbs ea the Unsprung weight savings is Titanic & the SL drives completely different & savage like, not to mention it hooks on the streets w/just little traction light flicker then WHAM! Though the extra hp/tq released now has the Disco Triangle blinking @ 80+ mph yes 80mph lol but most likely a combo due to soft huge tire walls flexing @ speed sets off Traction cntrl etc
Magnum Sized Rubbas'

Glad you guys dig it! My objective here was to attain as much traction as possible while still retaining MB's good looks.. My Anarchy Turbo/Header upgrades are due any week & coupled to E85 Race tune I will see 1000+ rwhp & 12-1300 TQ I need every bit of traction I can get..

Hyperion's Candy-Coated 4 x 4
Not feeling the "rubber band" look. Those wheels will bend super easily if you ever drive over a land-mine, molten lava or an endless row of spikes. Safety first!
