GLE Coupe 43 AMG

My new 2017 GLE 43 AMG Coupe!!!

Hi everyone!!! So I recently returned my 2014 CLS550 4matic and got a 2017 GLE 43 AMG Coupe!!! I absolutely LOVE this truck. I already did some updates to it. I already did some upgrades to the truck. I tinted the front 2 windows, lowered it and changed the factory 22" wheels to Niche Targa 22" wheels. Going to use the stock wheels for the winter. Here are some transformation pics from stock to current set up. Thanks for looking. Next step are to put some wheels spacers on.

I LOVE those wheels on there! I personally am not a huge fan of the "spoked" stock wheels...

very nice. Really wish I got white color instead of black.

I like the stock wheel look better. Targa is not too bad either.

MLTIME, I used Ghost motorsport lowering links. They are adjustable and very easy to install.

Nice Niche Targa Wheels. Are they 22x9 front, 22x10.5 rear? Offset? Did you use your OEM tires? Any front and rear pics? Thank you!

Thanks!!! Yes 22x9 and 22x10.5. I have to look up the offsets for you. I used factory tires. I used 25mm spacer in the rear and 10mm in front. Fills in gap perfect. When i get a chance i will post updated pics to this thread.
