looking classy jadeethan, i also have base model but tell me truthfully how well does it ride sitting that low?? I have 22" and I'm scared to drop it any further. Im worried if i go any lower i will run into suspension problems bc I drive with a heavy foot lol.

Hey jett..thanks.

actually my car is not that low...it looks like that in photos..i still have some gap..especially in the rear..

but truthfully i live in upstate NY so the roads are nice..nice enough that my wife doesn't think it rides any different then stock.

But when we go to NYC or any of the 5 boroughs...the ride suffers a little..but to be honest..it's not terrible...also I have 20's not 22's....

Are you in the nyc area?

I really like your rims i was going to go with the 22" version. I think it looks so clean bc the face has the AMG style but the chrome lip makes it more distinctive. I love my forgiato's but i certainly lose a bit of driving pleasure on turns,accelerating etc. Im seriously considering selling for some stock 63 wheels

Im in long island,
and as far as driving in the 5 boroughs goes, i leased a bmw 328 for 299/mo
Occasionally i will drive the S into the city for some dinner & drinks but there are just too many goddamn potholes/sewer caps

Depends on the weather
I traded my 06' E55 in a few weeks ago for a 2013 S550. So far I made the right decision. This is a seriously nice car.

Hello Robert,

I'm running Pirelli 245 30x22 in the front and 295 25x22 in the rear. I've had the car lowered on Adjustable Air Links since I purchased the car.

thanks for responding and happy holidays. I am not sure when I get my wheels and will post some photos when I do.

again the car looks great, when you have a chance, take some close up photos of the wheels, I like the deep concave look. Also issues with ride quality ??? vibration and dry vs wet conditions ???

Feel free to send me a PM regarding how you feel about the wheel quality, I know that I had HRE's and ADV's and were disappointed with both. Both were 3 piece and vibrated in the rain. They both were a couple of years old and I think the tech. has gotten better since than, but still..........

I'm actually pleased with the Vossen CV3s, I haven't had any issues with them and since they're one piece wheels they're a lot stronger that bot my 2 and 3 piece wheels. The wheels also look really good and are very easy to clean, which is a big plus to me.
