MY15 S63 Coupe Possible Upgrades

I’m keen to get peoples thoughts on possible upgrades. I’ve got an Obsidian Black MY15 Coupe, black interior with the factory 19” AMG 10 spoke silver wheels.
The 19s look too small for the car but I don’t think I would want to go as big as 22 as there is lot of commentary about compromised ride quality at that size. Also keen for peoples thoughts on black wheels on the black car?
Keen for thoughts on tyres as I would need new ones with the new wheels..
Also thinking about the OLED retrofit and whether people think that is worth doing?
The Facelift bumper and rear defusers look great but suspect they would be too expensive to do?
Thanks!

I have 21's on my car with Michelin pilot sport 4s tires. They are a fantastic tire

Slightly lowered

Nice. Did you notice any difference in the ride between those and the factory rims?

Thumbs up 21 are perfect with Michelin P4

22 definitely 2 much
21 best compromise esthetic and quality ride



Vossen VFS2. In 21. 255 front 295 rear

Nope. 20-21 didn't change anything.

Pilot St4s are the best for summer. Nothing comes close.

And I just love Technition’s pictures and spot on advice!

Thank you for the great pictures and sharing your vast experience. It is folks like you, the one and only.DB, Hawki63, and the incredible heisnberg that make the forum worthwhile.

Despite the pre-owned type spammers ;-) — thank you guys for the passionate love for the best coupe ever!

ok, too much 18 good old Scutch, best Dan

es, I certainly appreciate the feedback being new to the forum and a new S63 Coupe owner. I can’t get PS4S for my 19s (only PS4) so an upgrade to 20s or 21s is logical. I’m a bit limited by what’s available in NZ and my wife is not thrilled about me spending any more on the car so I am trying to be budget conscious! I like these two AMG wheels which I think could work well with Obsidian black...

You can't go wrong with AMG forged aluminum wheel. Super light especially with those cross spoke 10" factory wheels in stain black finish! Nothing beats OEM look

My coupe is Obsidian Black with the forged cross-spoke wheels in black and they look spectacular IMHO. Whatever you end up going with, your car will look spectacular. Best of luck!
