Why u say that Dyno? Do they look really bad if not lowered or smth else?

 

I just think having a big lip will only draw more attention to the gap between the tire and fender.

 

ah got you.

So do you guys think its a bad idea to buy wheels first than worry about the lowering or nah?

 

You have to go according to your budget. I think if you get the wheels and put them on, it will drive you more to lower the car.

 

I got the wheels and springs at almost the same time...had the wheels put on and then the next day or so went and installed the springs...

the couple days I had the wheels on without the drop drove me crazy, so yes I would recommend getting the wheels and the springs as long as your budget allows...

Also, how big of a lip do you want?...

not sure how big of a lip i can ask for i mean am going with 18's not 19's

i want smth that is smaller in the front but bigger in the back

Another option would be normal wheels up front and concaves in the back.

I saw a c230 kompressor the other day and it looks great



what kind of springs do these ****ers use

 

for a point of reference 19 wheels with deep dish on AMG springs

 

Hmmm not bad for stock man at that's 19 I think with 18 it will look even better!
I am assuming AMG springs do make the car sit
Lower . Ahhhh lost now

 

for the original question, the height is noticeable between the clk320 and clk55. My clk55 looks like it has been lowered a bit if you didnt know any better and the 320 has a gap. As others have said I still wouldnt buy them

 

Thanks for the info moedy.
got any side pics of ur 55?

 

kind of blurry because I cropped the pic and made it bigger from my phone but hope it helps

If you are going to the trouble and expense of upgrading your suspension components, don't go AMG. The difference will be so minimal, you will not be able to tell the difference. You will still have a soft suspension with a big gap between the wheel and the fender.
There are MUCH better options out there.
