Hey everyone my name is Sun. I am the soon to be ex-audi now mercedes boy. I have been thinking as of late about what my first mod should be. It has come down to this...
1. 20 inch HRE's
2. Full I.C.E.

The rims would be a 20x8.5 and 20x9.5 in the rear. As for the I.C.E. it would be a kenwood in-dash in the front with another 2 7inch screens in the headrest with the changing of both front and rear components and i'm thinkin about adding one 10 inch JL W7 but that is not lookin good at the moment. I have had 2 12 inch JL W3's before and they bumped very well. But I think I want more clarity these days then bass...thanks for any opinions...

i say definitetly go with the 20' HRE's.
I think u can go with 20x10 in the backs...not sure
Don't make the same mistake as me and get 19's....they too small
And about the ICE, make sure when u take out ur HU they know what they doin cuz I'm having problems with taking the HU out and now the car is back to stock.

RIMS

Rims first my friend,always.Everything else comes secondary.Its the first thing people notice when you roll up,they catch the eye.The ICE is not something I'm into,but since your doing a showcar that can be done anytime.NY is murder on 20's so I had to go with 19's,your a very lucky man......
