Actually, after i took the 19 out and put 18 Lorinser, look much better.
It eliminates that optical illusion of needing to lower the car.

Nice pics.

Love the F1 fenders and front bumper combo. From the pics, it appears that the front bumper is missing the mesh.....or is it painted black? A flat hood emblem would be a nice touch....just my opinion.

Do you have any pics of the Lorinser wheels on your car?

A world of difference those big lorinser fog lights make. I didn't even recognize the front bumper to be DTM until I read later on. Good job though with the small foglights. Post pics with the lorinser rims

yeah... while the DTM foglights are a dead giveaway of what kit it is... the luminance from the lights suck major....

well, unless you really need them as fog lights...

btw, yeah, the car with 19s made it look a little high... but still looks hella nice

Not sure if I'm feeling the foglights and it needs to be lowered, but I love the rims and the direction you're going with it. :0)

Also, with a black grille, you might want to consider the flat hood emblem, or black chroming the upright one to match.

Looks great! Keep it up...

The car looks great. I always wanted to know what a CLK 430 would look like with those HRE rims on and your car answered that questions- looks clean!

I agree with the choice to go with 18". The ride should be better too.

I like those wheels a lot, now the car would look awesome once you lower it.
