Chuck - Very nice shots! How did you determine to use 10mm and 12mm spacers on your car? Why not use 10 or 12 all the way around or go slightly more - say 12 and 15?

Brad at Evo recommended the spacer sizes. We went with smaller spacers in front to give it more of an offset front to back. I doubt you could go much larger in the rear without potential rubbing issues. Another thing I do not know is if there are longer wheel bolts available to use larger spacers?

there really is no substitute for Mercedes silver. my AMG is silver and i am always getting compliments on the car. you think Ferrari you think red, you think Jag and green comes to mind, Corvette and it is yellow for me because of the race cars, MB is always silver first.
