lowering question?
I have a w124 wagon, 1991 300te. I am lowering it with h&r springs and bilstein sports. I have a set of staggered 18x8 and 18x9 Monoblock aero II. What size tires are you guys running front and rear? Thinking something like a 225/40/18 front and a 245/35/18 rear? Also do any of you guys have pictures of one with this setup so i can see what it will look like?
thanks

My wagon shares your springs and struts, I have 17x7.5 et35 (about et35, they were et32 and I had them shaved a tad)
with 215x45x17 tires front and rear.
Fronts are pretty durn tight, and I would go a little larger in rear if I were shopping now.
What color? And, post up some pics, b4 and afta.

It is dark grey with a silver bottom. Are you still running the sls? I went with the 18's because i am going to c32 front brakes. Also trying to find all the parts to do a e320 front end conversion with euro lights kinda like yours. I am also trying to find the 500e front fenders for a decent price, but not having any luck. I already found the rear quarter cuts for the flares. Also swapping in a diesel rear gear for gas mileage and a diesel valve body with the appr. accumulator springs for a 1st gear start and good shifts.
