Chappy, is this the wheel width itself, or are you using spacers? I guess the car is lowered also? I wanted to bring out the rear wheels a bit, because they're too tucked in in my opinon, but I read that it could bugger up some suspension hoobajoos. And afted spending for a whole Lemfoerder suspension, I'm not having any of this.

Thank you. The springs are factory OE for euro-spec cars; I sourced these from Belgium about 12-13 years ago. Factory pads (2 bump front, 1 bump rear).

These wheels are the factory AMG Aero (SL 2-piece) made for AMG by BBS. The W208 F1 Safety Car used these wheels.

No spacers. Specs are 18x8.5 in front and 18x10 in rear. Offset is ET 25 both f/r.
