Pics of my S55

I attached some other pics in the sticky. Here are some more.

I had a 2002 CL55 and the speed difference is rediculous. I thought I was fast in the CL but now..............

I've embarrassed about 8 cars on the road; no real good "kills". The fastest car was a non-turbo 997.

The only non-stock item in the car is a k40 radar. I'm planning on getting the Kleeman K2 REAL SOON and 20" SSR GT3 rims. I think they'll look good with the tectite grey

They are AMG rims just a different style. Style 215 I think.

Say, are these the 18" or the 19" style III AMG wheels?

Oh, and congrats on the ride of course!

Most likely. For the wide rear wheels you may hav to have the "fenders rolled" on a non-AMG, but I''m not sure about that.

I'm pretty sure all W220s have identical fenders. And I also believe its safe to say, whatever fits a CL-class, will fit a S-class.

Oh I didn't see the pics until now, looks good, can't wait to see the build up with the new rollers and other fine mods.

I had another wheel idea for a 3pc forged wheel that is at the same Maya price point.

DCR Forged 20" Cataluyna brushed aluim

(jta00r1's W211 nice car)

D2-how much do those run. I'm about to get into an 06 S55 or S65 in black (cant get enough of the 5.5 V8, and dig the room and packaging of the 220 S)
and those wheels are sick! Would those run any less than comprable HRE 547r's?
