SLIQ,my car is e350 and i am very satisfied with my Eibach springs.I have always used Eibach suspension,it is very close to the original one.I think you will be very satisfied if you choose to install the Eibach springs.

Oh thanks alot, well they dont have one specifically for the 550 and theres a lot of discussion around the idea of the ones for the 350 will fit or not, i think im just going to wait for them to announce one specifically for the 550

WELL,let me tell you that on box when i have received the package it was written that the springs are for W204.I called to the dealer and they said that is the correct code,so i think the ones for E350 will fit E550.

Thanks for the interior shots. I've been trying to see what the black ash trim looks like. I'm waiting for my black '12 E350C with red leather interior with that trim.
If you can get a couple full shots of the doors with the black ash trim showing it would be much appreciated.
Beautiful car. Enjoy.

Thank you very much!
The full shot of the door from the side is especially useful. I now know I did the right thing getting the black ash wood trim instead of the burl.
If you can picture a big red patch of door panel trim where your white door trim is, I think you'll agree the black ash is a better style/color match than the burl would have been.
This is the first time I've ever ordered a car without seeing exactly what I'm getting first since red leather hasn't been available in the U.S. until '12 for this model, so was a little concerned.
Keep on keepin' on with enjoyment of your great looking new car.

first pics (the black ones) are AMG VI...optional for the C63. The silver/grey ones are OEM from the C63. I got both from the same vendor (AlloyWheelsDirect) in the UK.

yes. For the 19" black wheels, I used 245/35/19 and 275/30/19 (a little tall in the rear). For my new set of BBS, I'm going with 265/30/19. The C63 18's have stock size fronts and 275/35/18 in the rear.
