Suggested mods for blk on blk 14 e550 4matic

Guys,

I am thinking of tinting the car and putting two 12's in the trunk but what wheels should I be considering with the awd? Any other suggestions welcomed. Anyone else have an E550 in the area? I am located in Edmonds.

Thanks brother.

I am looking at cartoys, will consider the audio advice.

For the 21" any wheels in particular best suited for 4matic?

MERCEDES BENZ LOWERING LINKS - $50
NEVER USE BRAND NEW, WENT WITH STAR TO PROGRAM HEIGHT.

On most vehicles there is a Ride Height Sensor on all four Control Arms. Some only have three, two in the front one for the rear. It pivots. One side is connected to the Frame and the other a Control Arm. To see what they look like on most vehicles is easy. Put the vehicle to the highest setting and look straight into the wheel well on top of the front tire. May need a flashlight. In the rear you have to look from underneath. They move with the suspension and tell the computer what height the vehicle should be sitting at.

Our kit replaces the stock sensor arms to Billet Aluminum Fully Adjustable Links. When stretched or shrunk, depending on the application, they change the voltage coming from the sensor. That tricks the computer into thinking the vehicle is sitting higher then the factory setting therefore lowering it.

Thanks, wease.

I don't think I am going to lower the car as it already sits pretty low, thank you.

Likely going to keep the height stock and throw in some 20" or 21". I do not have airmatic, after replacing a bag in my old E class never again.
