Slight lift
I already started this in the wrong place
My question is, can one lift an '08 ML320 an inch or so with tires and or rims.
Reaso: I'm in Fire and EMS and some of the roads can be alittle hinky, so I though I'd ask this question (no I don't need a truck, just got rid of one
).
If it can't be down safely then I adjust my attempts to reach people/places accordingly, TIA. Herb

you can do it with tires and rims but you will loose low end torque since the tires would be of greater diameter than intended. better to change the suspension I found this but they mostly show 163's but the links may help.

Thanks for the information, I don't have airmatic. I might have to go with the next size tyre, but will think about the lack of response.
Thanks again, Herb
