New 20" Wheels/Tires and LOMO Lowering Module PICS!
Well I had a vision for this car when I bought it several months ago and I finally feel like she's coming along! For reference sake these wheels are 20 x 8.5 front +32 and 20 x 10.5 +25 rears. I decided to get tires in 255/30 and 305/25 sizing. Absolutely no rubbing in any mode.
The first three pics are from the installer with the car in stock comfort mode, had not yet installed the lowering module. I also had them install some Mercedes center caps, as it adds a nice subtle touch. It's kind of hard to capture the actual wheels since they are black, and in person looks killer... especially the rear concave! I feel like a 10 spoke is the best option for our cars. I wanted to thank all the forum members for posting all the great info on here, made my decision much easier, especially with sizing.
Ok so the next picture is with the lowering module installed , I set it to custom at a drop of 35mm front and 30mm rear. Car rides pretty good, I may raise it up a little bit for a bit more comfort, but I think it looks great.
This is in comfort mode (note the driveway is at a slight incline):
This is in "raise mode"
and lastly, in sport mode
Enjoy! Next up is a slight blackout of some of the exterior trim, and possibly recolor the calipers to make them pop a bit more.
Nice! Is this the OBD lowering module from LoMo? The $500 one? I have the Renntech one, have had it for 2 years now but it never has lowered correctly in the front. Thinking of replacing it with that OBD lomo one so if that’s what you have that’s exactly the look I’m going for.. my rims look the same...

Nice! I think i am. This silly Renntech one has never worked right.. spent all this money on it and paid for the install which also wasn't cheap and have crazy wheel gap up front. I'm going to go with that one, your car looks perfect!
Looks awesome! I just lowered mine, and have the diffuser and black concave wheels coming in soon, our cars might look identical!
How is the fitment with the 20x10.5 ET+25 in the rear? I have 11” with ET+35 coming in which is similar and I’m worried about it being too aggressive lol. You don’t have any issues with clearing the rear fenders?

Thanks! Well according to your sizing your wheels will stick out 2mm more on the outter fender compared to mine... I am not too sure how much will play into fitment on the inner portion of the wheel well. Good luck and post pics!
Yeah, the inner clearance should be good. Just the outer position sticking too far out or rubbing against the fenders I was a little worried about. Oh well, the price we pay for these super concave wheels lol. I like the aggressive stance on your car though so I'll be happy if mine comes out similar to that.
I had my car tuned by OE a few weeks back, and I'm getting some vinyl work done this week so our cars might literally look the same after everything lmao
