I talked about springs but they thought it would be a step too far especially with me having the extra Edition 1 lip on the front. Will post pics if/when I get it done. We discussed the extra stresses/wear on the wheel bearings in particular but they didn't think there would be a problem with 10-15mm spacers and hadn't experienced any themselves.
Good to hear mate, can't wait too see it!

I think having adaptors is bad but spacers are ok at this size.

You can always add the KWs later if you feel the need.

Looking forward to the pics.

Due to the demand, here are a few more pics from the weekend.

Absolutely loving this car... it gets so much attention.

The car looks so wide in the back now that the wheels sit flush with the guards

I'm late on this thread since I've recently come back from O/S after a 5 week absence but have to say wow it looks awesome Sanch !!! congrats

Love the silver wheel choice IMHO looks so much better than black on black it really pops and makes the car stand out so much more also love the custom plates

***-man, huh, BACnMercedes?

Sanch, the car is stunning. Great job. I'm waiting for a time-slot to open up in a nearby (3 hours away) shop that will apply an XPEL clear bra/fenders, and 4 coats of CQuatz. No one here is very experienced with Modesta.

Sanch, I've go to say this again, you have got me thinking about mods
I would never have considered. I suppose the you cannot have the spacers in isolation
without lowering the ride height?

going as aggressive as you can without lowering usually looks bad. It brings more attention to the fender gap.

You want to hit the middle ground if you do not plan to lower the car, IMO.

I spent some time discussing this very thing with the "mod shop" (as well as Sanch (thanks!)). They advised against changing the suspension and just go with 10 rear, 12 front spacers. Should be done on Wednesday this week. Will post some pics as soon as I get chance. Would have already been done but they struggled to get hold of the locking wheel nuts which are due to arrive tomorrow.

Thanks, I'm happy I went with these wheels this time around.
