You car looks bloody awesome..
If you don't mind me asking, what is the offset and rim spec.
Are you running 265 wide on the back..?

Regardz,
Offset front is 29 it should have 16mm spacers, the front wheel offset is 45mm.
Offset rear is 30 it should have 5mm spacers, the rear wheel offset is 35mm.
This exact same fitment can be run on a W209 CLK320/500/55AMG.

How do you post multiple large pictures in one post, without getting the pixtel prohibited limit cut-off?

The front actually sits about a half-inch lower now. I took the pics right after I changed out my springs, and they had not yet settled.
It's definitely not the beast that your 55 is, but it does me OK
