20" HRE 542R wrapped in PS2's.

Sorry for the crappy pics, I took some on my SLR but we just moved offices and everything is messed up. I have to lower the car again so I may wait until after that to take some better pics

I like the black out and the black wheels. Is this an SL550 or AMG 55?

Nahh, the stock brakes are sufficient for the amount of power it makes. If I did get brakes it would be mostly cosmetic. I don't feel like dumping 4k for something cosmetic with a year left on the lease

Thanks, it's 20*10 front 20*11 rear, 255 front / 295 rear. PS2's don't make a 305

It's custom straight piped (mufflers).
