HRE, DPE, & Iforged are all great wheel companies as well, so again we're putting a non-German wheel on a German car. 
I agree also. The things that are important are craftsmanship and custom fitment. Thus there is no need to use spacers or roll fenders or other things that alot of people with brand new cars just dont want to do. Also the VS-XX are availible at a reasonable price point (not cheap, but not HRE 5R series either).
We have proudly marketed and carried WORK products for quite some time now. Of course the aggressive fitments doesnt hurt the overall effect!
Great overall application (wheels / tires / spec / lowering)
Enjoy.

Yo D2 - you took so long to get back to me that my brother pulled the trigger on a set of 20" staggered HRE 543Rs and Pilot Sports.
I'm sure he could have saved a couple grand by going with you.

I just lowered my E500 last night using the washer & dremel method, looks sweet, was dirt cheap, and had lots of fun.
When you say you "changed the links on the front", does that mean your no longer using the washer method up front? Are you referring to the AMG suspension links?
Also, your ride looks slightly lower in the front. Can you feel any weight shift when breaking? i.e. any nose dive effect?
P.S. Gorgeous wheels!

In regards to braking, I don't feel any noticable difference.
