New 18" wheels fitted

I just got my AMG style IV one piece 18" wheels fitted (with S-03s) after a 12 weeks wait for delivery (it's a long way from Germany to Australia!). These are the same wheels going on European versions of the CLK 55. I'll post pics as soon as I can find my camera.

Big improvement in looks - more sheen than the standard wheel, particularly on the rim of the wheel. Makes the car look much tougher and solid. Ride is barely changed. I'm a happy boy!

I can't recall, but a very good price - but I do have a friend at Bridgestone.
