What did you to your GLC 43/63 today?

It seems that quite a few of the car forums have one of these threads so I figured I'd start one and see if it takes off. I'll start.

I received a letter from AMG private lounge and got AMG sticker badge. Also, test fitted my Vorsteiner VFF 107 and gosh it look so sexy!

Had ceramic coat (Opticoat Pro Plus) put on my GLC3, and picked her up today. Also recently had 3M film installed on the front, mirrors, door edges and cups, and rear bumper. Also got the front windows tinted.

I also had 3M film installed but only the front and side mirrors only. Also, ordered some oem door pins to replace the cheapy oem ones.

Got my new wheels And tires on. I think the original 20s were on Run flat tires. These new continentals are so much more complaint and supple despite the increased diameter.

oh, and got the dealer to paint my calipers

Nope, these were custom built, so you usually almost never want to use spacers.
Zero rubbing against the fenders, and the design of the spokes allow them to clear the brake calipers, in-fact there is a fair amount of clearance.

For reference, stock sizing is:
21 X 9.5 ET30
21 X 10 ET28

Current setup:
21x9.5 ET18
21x10.5 ET18
Rear width was also increased by .5"

Am attaching a picture of the profile drawing before manufacturing.

What model of Continental tires did you get with your new wheels? From the photos, they look like all seasons.
