Where are my aggressive stance W203s???

I haven't seen any aggressive wheel/tire setups on W203s. If there are people on here with gangster stance, please make yourself known and put up specs!!!
(if you don't have any fender work done, don't bother posting)

Here is what proper stance and fitment looks like, for reference...

Like you said, "To each his own." !
I've looked through every picture in there, not a single car with gangster fitment. A few of the guys with BBS LMs are close, but not quite there...

Yucky. I bet that makes for a seriously rough/bouncy ride.

maybe i'm too old at 26 but i just don't like the ride from slammed cars on 19-20" wheels anymore...was ok back in my honda days back but now OEM is fine for me; might drop it an inch or so to reduce the fender gap.

Is that a knock, or a compliment?

While I'm thankful my C32 doesn't qualify for "gangster" status, I rather like the stance when lowered on H&Rs with the relatively aggressive offset of Renntech Monolites. For whatever that's worth.

This sub-forum's a pretty friendly place, but bravado like stating what's "proper," or "if you don't have fender-work, don't bother posting" won't win you many allies here.

Oh, and I like the look of the 3-series wagon, but the SL is a bit much. My $0.02.

I suspect the lack of gangster stance MBs is directly proportional to the amount of taste of the owners.

What you're saying is that MB owners have great taste?





I stand corrected...

It's not a good, nor a bad thing. Merely an observation. While I do enjoy the look you are talking about, our understanding of "aggressive" is different. The term "proper" is merely an opinion and this is the internet.
Winning the forum member's hearts over is not my intention but neither is a making a tactful first post i guess...haha Oops...

As for the SL...it's over the top and also not my style, but I couldn't find any MB cars that fit the bill. The SL was the closest thing "stance"-wise.

What is gansta fitment.... There is a girl who lives 4 houses down and has 20's on a W203 along with a "20's" badge on the side of the car. You know.. the same spot that V6komp should be. Man it looks bad. But she's kinda cute. My forgiveness comes in many ways.

For the most part, yes. Thank you though for showing a few examples of the exceptions. Money doesn't necessarily buy class, and the examples you've shown prove that. I'm sure most at AMG would have a small bit of vomit in their mouths if they saw a "gangstered" MB, knowing how much work and engineering went into their product to see it completely screwed up by some hack. Taking something that works and then ruining it, wow what a talent.

You can't even see how aggressive the wheel offsets are in those pictures...? FrankW's talking about his LM fitment, unless I misread it, since that's the topic of this thread.

The OP is looking for picture of cars that are slammed to the ground, have wide flared fenders, and not just "aggressive looking" MBs in general.

I think mines pretty low, but nothing like the examples youve posted.
