rbohgan-
Sweet setup. Are you running stock wheels and stock tire sizes? And are you running 15mm H&R front and back? Thought about going 20mm in the front but afraid it'll be too thick..
Thanks man. im running stock wheels and tires right now. went 15mm HR all around yeah. thats wide enough as i plan on changing fronts to 255s and rears to 285 maybe 295 when they need replacing. 20mm will work but not with wider tires than stock on stock rim. think itll look funny then
I spent some time detailing the car this week, it's been a while since I applied the ceramic coat and I wanted to top it up with some polish and sealent for added gloss and protection from the winter weather. The above are the shots I took and edited.
finally made a decision after two months of car research, tire kicking, and dealer visits. was in a leased base 991 prior to, considered a M2, M4, and yet another 991. have owned the Mercedes marquee in the past and with positive ownership experiences. was close to ordering one but the slot was for a non-S but I wanted an S given the relatively small pay-up. thought I wanted another black car but chose grey given the contrast and the fact that I havent owned a grey car in forever. has adaptive lights, night pkg, HUD, multimedia, park assist, black/grey accent recaros, sport exhaust, and carbon trim, I think its going to make for a very fun daily driver (I dont log a lot of miles) and already reminds me of an RS4 I used to own. cant wait to start it up later this afternoon!
