Thanks man !!
I am running H&R coilovers.
Offsets are 31s in the rear and the fronts are pain but i am running 57ets with a 25mm h&r hubcentric spacer. not the choice i woulda done, and i think next time i wouldnt run spacers, but i have been an avid fan of Work wheels, so its was a sentimental choice.
past car with vsxx also.

I have to admit one of the nicest tires I have ever run. Sit pretty straight and very nice grip. This coming from other brands like nitto and kuhmo. Those don't compare.

Very nice choice, I think more w203 owners should consider WORK wheels as they are of the best quality, custom made specifically for the application (no spacers), hubcentric and reasonably priced!
Your car looks great, enjoy.

I agree D2, but I do get some grief for putting Japanese wheels on a german car. lol
Quality is above and beyond. The wheels are strong, I have never bent one even with the crappy bay area roads.

How is your clearance with the front tire/wheel and the coilovers?

Wheels look awsome!!!!!! Is your car Brilliant Silver or Pewter??? Hard to tell from the photso. Which ever it is, it looks great!
So what's next???? C55 spoiler, grill, ????? We all know you can't stop there...they are working on a 12 step program though.

Trust me, you are right, I find it funny that you get premium JDM wheel grief, yet no one gets grief for knockoffs that dont fit properly and wobble on thier spacers. To each his own, but for my vehicle I know the one that I'd choose! In my opinion its all about the product never mind the preconceived notions!

i am lucky that i bought the car and the previous owner was a benz fanatic already.
the only thing i am doing is rims and navi command.
the car came with suspension, sl55 intake, pulleys(not on the car), sway bars, bixenon, c55 spoiler.
So many I will be cured !! I might not need the 12 step program.

The original set on the audi was sold with the car.
