Love that side view picture, how was the car lowered and has the ride quality been affected enough to notice?
EDIT: You said by star on the other thread, were links used?

Wheels & tires like that on a W222, are like 4" heels on a beautiful woman. They look sensational, but are completely impractical and horribly uncomfortable when moving.

nothing much different with the ride quality, feel the same. it set by local mercedes workshop (authorized) using star diagnostic, no link used and this is the lowest level that allowed by the system.

Is there any issues with the headlights beams not going the same distance etc? I was told doing this was impossible without links in the 222.

Very nice looking car and well-taken pictures. I'm not a fan of dark glass (of its mostly bright in Indonesia i can see the logic though!), but I'm less of a fan of half dark, half clear that has become popular in 🇬🇧. I mean MB never have that in their top design promo shots. So well done for making it all round.

Nice analogy 😉

Like most guys I like it when women wear them, but I wouldn't put 22s on my W222. They are too low profile for me, as I want the focus to be on luxury and comfort, not sport. I barely push the S button as it is! Nice looking wheels though.

the crime here a bit high, when they see something valueable like purse or laptops they will break your glass and took it. thats why we inindonesia put a bit dark glass to avoid that. especialy for dailycar.
