Need Your Help--- For those who has 19s or 20s on your ride~~

I am thinking to drop 19s or 20s on my car. How do you like/ dislike after you have these on? Handling? Ride? Acceleration? Any problems occurs?

Please let me know which category are your are in:

A. 19s- Not Lowered
B. 19s- Lowered
C. 20s- Not lowered
D. 20s- Lowered

I am aware the suspension caliberation for AMG & Non-AMG is differ, but your comments are really appreciated!

Tks

handling is better of course, but ride quality ain't that great. not sure about the acceleration. its been more than a year since i lowered my car, and so far there are no problems.

20's lowered..

ride of course is harder than if your riding on taller tires which puts more air between you and the pavement.. No problems with anything though.. I enjoy it and the handling is great!!! Really have to watch for potholes in the road!

So Here comes the question:

How you lowered your car?

1. Lowering Module ($1200?)
2. Lowering Link ($300~$500?)


From the search, module is reprogram the computer and make it lower. Link is physically lower the car. Please correct me if I am wrong.

The Good? Bad? Ugly?

Thanks for your inputs!
