Talking 2018 C63S from Berlin

Thought I'd finally post some better pics of my car...

2018 C63 S, Obsidian over Black, Chrome Delete, 15mm Spacers F/R, Tuned to 609hp/602lbft (617PS / 816Nm for other Europeans)

Loving the car more every time I drive it. Short of wheels and a drop, I can't think of much else to do to it. Unfortunately here in Germany we have to stay within the TÜV regulations, so wider tires aren't possible. Thus I opted for spacers, since I really like the stock wheels. Certainly not as easy as modding in the US. If I were stateside, I'd probably already be running straight pipes and 305 rears, but hey, at least we have the Autobahn here

I don't understand why Mercedes just doesn't upgrade their certification to 10 mm wider tires front and back - maybe as optional. To me it's a safer setup because of better traction.

Beats me. The stock tire sizes are a joke for this amount of power.

Trust me, I've weighed the options. Not worth getting my car impounded, or having insurance drop me IF something were to happen. As you can imagine, German police don't have a sense of humor when it comes to "illegal mods".

Hey if you run spacers do you need to get them put on the registration doc? If not, how come they are exempt please?

Absolutely. Another 80 Euros on top of the cost of the spacers...
