1999 AMG C43
yeah, i dont think i can lower it with these bad boys lol. maybe i could lower it a touch if i took out the spacers cause they are definitely sticking out too far.

initially i had them installed without spacers and they did fit. they turned without rubbing, i think i could lower without them. really not much though and i was also concerned about clearance without the spacer during hard cornering. with such little space i wasnt sure how much the tire might flex and maybe hit something.

With my suspension set-up, the 18" on the front do rub on the inside of the wing when turning and hitting a bump. I'll post a photo later as the front is on axle stands now (changing the A/C condenser)

if you lower it the natural camber might allow it to fit without rubbing on the outside.
