I purchased a 2012 CLS550 on Saturday with 44k miles on it. This one is the launch edition and compared to my CLS500 this thing is just amazing. Now that I have picked it up I'm interested in boosting the power and changing the rims on it.
However, its kind of hard to pick out what rims would look nice on this car with this color. Some opinions would be appreciated.
I was researching an ECU tune by Renntech which costs about $2,800 but says the car will produce 540HP and 705 Torque. Good investment or no? Also are there any other upgrades I can do on it? (Link for Renntech ECU below)

I purchased this one because my 2006 CLS500 is up there on the miles with 217k on it but still running like a champ will still be my work vehicle. Hands down this CLS550 is the best car I've driven and definitely a head turner. So once again any opinions would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you!

OE tuning gives the same HP and slightly less torque number but is significantly less than the Renntech cost wise. I bought mine during the OETune Black Friday special they run every year. So spent in the $800's.Originally Posted by Drikic95

Great customer service and communication..... and the car comes alive. I look forward to driving the car and floor the accelerator far more than a grown adult should.
