If your goal is to put more power to the ground on the stock rims, I think Toyo Proxes R888's are your best bet. I plan to put them on mine after the tune goes in.

Will the 325/25X20 PSS fit? I went with the 305/25X20 PS2 because the PSS didn't come in that size. But I would love to run 325 PSS if it would fit.

Lewis L,
Your right. They are Michelins, but they are not super sports. I need to check when I get home on Monday Oct 1 which ones they are exactly. I let you know.

Those are my stock 19' AMG 5 spoke ya know....I just had them painted black. I don't track with the HRE's on but I am thinking about selling those and replacing with some 18's. PM if you're really interested....dialed in perfectly for our car too and have brand new pilot sports on them. It was amazing how much more attention I got with the HRE's on but now I am building to function over form.

Do I see a lot of CLS out here...lol...every block....hahaha. AMGs in Southern CA are like pick-up trucks in farm country. Its a joke...I think 60% of all AMG are sold from the two local dealerships here. I'm guessing 25% of this forum is local to me.
As and far as this not being a track car? Yea...everyone kind of tells me that...

Well really where's the line between a super modded GT and a track car? What about the new 4 door ferrari? I'd definitely call that a track car and I'm sure a modded '12 cls63 could give that a run for it's money.
