those look like the standard springs - im trying to get a drop in soon, to the OP - you should soon too 
then again, if the ML is your wife's, she may not want to sacrifice some of the ride comfort.
btw i dunno if it's just me, but from some angles your front driver-side tire looks over-inflated.

thanks guys and you are so right, she needs alittle drop. i don't think the wife would mind she's open to anything.
your right greg, they are 20x8.5, i was going to go with the 275/45/20 but the tire guy assured me that nitto said the tire and wheel combo was with in specs, plus i heard great things about nitto tires

oh and 1 more thingy, i did not really want to spend alot of money on wheels because it's a leased vehicle(because she will get a new one soon) so i prefered to put more money into the tires. some replica wheels are made to higher standerds than others, just like some of the higher end wheels and by no means am i knocking any of the higher end wheels, many of these companys have their beginings in racing but many do not. i really don't see my wife going over 80mph and discount tire i'm sure has standerds set in place because of liabillity issues with cheap knock offs( i could be wrong, i hope not) so i feel safe with her driving on these. one more thing, i could probably count on one hand the number of wheel manufactures that i would trust with their products going racing or going very fast(your better of putting your money in tires) and just so you know, flat lip designed wheels are preferably not recomended for racing or performance driving.

looks good but need to lower it. Give us some photo after it drop.
I agree to go for a copy wheel, specially if you have a lady at home and she will drive your car, she will not care how much do you spend.
