You are making me miss my CL600. I want to get a 65 and send to Speedriven when someone comes out with a replacement suspension. I loved the car but I needed something larger. The fact that the car ate over $10K in maintenance costs over the last year of ownership did not help.

Coil packs (under $1K each) and IC pump (under $150) are not that bad for a DIYer

9x20 et40 245/35/20 and 10x20 et45 285/30/20 and they fit perfect when the car lowered.
What wheels are you looking at ?

Thanks for the advice.. I'm looking at these Roderick rw6 rims they are mesh style concave. My buddy can give me a killer deal on the wheels. It's between that or the vossen wheels that are mesh too. I'm in a budget. After spending 2500 on Cls wheels that didn't fit my car... Don't mind me... Still trying to sell em!!!

If that on a 10" rear wheel you should be good, 295/30/20 tire might be a little tall I think 285/30/20 is more to stock size, but your tire guy can say for sure.
LOL here we go again.
You may have had AMG rotors and calipers on your CL600 also, but its not stock not even an option you can pick.

for coil conversion... You zealand in japan has offered coilovers as well as motorized coils for the 215 and 220 chassis for at least 4 years now. They did the SL as well.
