Thank you

They were initially installed at the preset height but the shop decided to drop it a little more. It looks awesome and the ride is unbelievable. The measurements with the 20's on before lowering were (from middle of centre cap to top of guard)
Front Before 355mm After 335mm
Rear Before 345mm After 335mm

I am really happy with the height of front but would like to bring the rear down 5-10mm

Due to the severe flooding here in Queensland these are the best pics I can do at moment

Those wheels are HUGE! Looks great!


Fixed.

Looks awesome!! Cant wait to install my wheels. The rear can definitely come down a tad more. They also may settle over a couple hundred miles.

The car really does ride better with the coil-overs.

Thanks for tips on the H&R's. I have had a lot of different suspension set up's over the years and these H&R coilovers are by far the most compliant ride.
Have to take it back to the shop to get rear adjusted as they are a nightmare to drop down on your own.

That car looks sick!!!!!! nice choice! you need a front lip though!

coilovers look awesome Paul. Got me rethinking my views on lowering this car. 18+ inches of snow coming tonight so I got time to think (I mean order parts).

Nice drop & hope you will be able to keep your car dry with all the flooding in Australia.

The wheels just look way tooooooo big for the car, I agree 19s are pushing it but 20s? just not my taste Sorry

I don't think the wheels look big at all.

Now this is BIG!

Having problems uploading more pictures. Not sure if they are to big.

Can I email them to someone for re sizing so they can post them for me.

Thanks

I'll be more then happy to post them for you! My email address is neal@etkms.com

Think it's my camera. I'll let you know if I get it working.

Not the best pics sorry
The rear will be getting lowered a little more next week hopefully if flooding clears

Wow! that looks incredible! If I had a C63 I would not mind it looking exacly like yours!

Get off that curb !
I think you'll have to be very careful and watch out with those skinny sidewalls.


BTW I have to admit, I did not like your wheels in your original post, but with this drop they look great. You have a classical theme going on here - for some strange reason I actually like the chrome trims on your car. They match the semi-black grill and brushed wheels. Good job.

Thank You.
I was also a bit unsure at first as I ordered the wheels sight unseen from the US. I really like them as they sort of keep the factory look going. The finish on the HRE brushed alloy is amazing, I can see why they are so expensive. I'll drop the rear down another 10mm in the next couple of days which should make it look even better, then it's off for a wheel alignment at the stealer.
Considering a front lip but I am sure it will get torn off in shopping centre's as the car is pretty low already at front.

To be honest, ur car looks fxxking HOT!!! HOT as hell!!!

Once you have a front spoiler installed, it will be much much better!!

Thank you.
Would you mind measuring the rear of your car for me. From the ground to top of rear guard. Mine is around 330-335 mm

btw, red calipers would be the choice for some contrast behind the silver wheels!!

sure I will do it for u tmr

How much lower is your car now in the front? My car is at the shop at the moment as I am getting my H&R 20mm lowering springs installed and as soon as I get my car I'm getting the CF apron lips installed (they're sitting in my garage since more than a month). IMO it's a great subtle accent for the front bumper which also makes it more aggressive without the risk of being torn off.

Sorry got mixed up. The rear measures 650mm from the ground to top of rear guard.
Red calipers would be nice but I will stick with the silver for the moment, need to save up some more funds

Front has come down 20-25mm, this was measuring before and after on the 20's. Those side apron lips do look good, I would probably paint them body colour as I don't have any carbon fibre on my car.

So my car will probably look similar to yours but I have 19" for the summer. And people say it's insane to use this setup for a DD in Poland - the roads are in terrible shape and you have to watch out on the road not to lose one of your wheels or an entire axle
