Pics of my car sitting on 20" st4's
Here is my ride on St4's from Tire Rack. I bought the whole package. Wheels tires and all new TPMS sensors which I am happy to say worked right away.
I also dropped her some more using links from adjustable ride.. Thanks John!!!
The ride is Very nice, no rubbing. I didn't go staggered because I am going to use that setup only in the summer. BUT I really lke the way it looks now so I may just keep this look.

Thanks to all...
The tips are shantz via perfomance.
This is a very not too flashy look. I prefer it. The car is flashy enough by itself.
Staggered setup will only work for me in the summer from now on. because they don't last that long, and are not very winter friendly. I go north almost every November and do not like snow sledding with the wide back wheels.

I think they are well worth the price. The offset is what makes them look so good and you're right they are very very AMG'ish.

Very nice. So what brand/size are the tires? I'm riding on Falken FK 452's, staggered, and they're a bit on the harsh side. The tread wear rating is 300, so I guess I shouldn't have been surprised.

I replaced from a set of 19" bridgestone RFT's . THey should be called RHT's for "Rock Hard Tires" instead... THey had a treadwear rating of like 280 but you wouldn;t know by the ride. I gues it all boils down to to the sidewall. the tread wear number take into consideration variations in sidewall strength therefore, you can have a treadwear of 280 and a hard side wall and the ride is harsh OR you can have a treadwear of say 340 with a reasonably soft sidewall and have a better felling ride. ( not necessarily a better tire in either case ).
But I guess this is why there is such a disparity in tire prices of the same size.

Are those quad tips the add-ons or are they welded onto the stock pipes?

Looking good...one question though. I have the same setup, only difference is mine at 19"s and staggered. Tires are 245/40 in the front and 275/35 in the rear, but I have rubbing when I hit any sort of dip on the road. How come yours don't rub? I hate the loud rubbing sound that can be heard whenever I hit a dip on the road.
