Hi Vic,

F 8.5 x 18 with 225
R 9.5 x 18 with 255 (SO3's)

Very slight fender mods and a 5mm spacer on the front only.

Look really sweet!!!

I have a question, it may once again be a repeat, but are the c32's in Europe lower then the one in North America?? I know that is the case for regular 203's!

reason, why i ask is that i would like to get the euro amg springs to lower my car, instead of eibach's or h&r!!

thnx very much!

Re Ride height

Not sure about exact measurements, but it appears US cars are higher (bumper height regulations?).

Checkout C32 Life site, where the guys are trying to get to the bottom of it - spring pads have come up as possibly being different.

Good luck!

Thanks Guys for all the encouraging comments!

Still only got 150 miles, can't wait for the opportunity to give it full revs - it already feels like it will really fly when the engine has loosened up a bit.

SO3's feel really like they will be great too, but not sure how long they'll last!
