Thanks. I am torn about lowering it since I almost take the front end off in my driveway. I probably will but in all likelihood I will modify my driveway entrance. You talk about cars being an obsession.

Use the ABC-raise button when entering/exiting your driveway. Just make sure you don't forget. Put a sign up both ways

So will I! It all depends on how I like the chrome. If it's too much bling for me I'll have (only) the centers redone in brushed chrome (if possible, or else brushed aluminium) by HRE GmbH germany. We'll see.

Brushed chrome is pretty cool and looks like this:

When there are pictures to be shown I will show off inmediately

Wheels are in! Have to do a proper inspection of what I actually bought and decide if I leave it like this or if I mod the wheels. Thanks VividPhill, within the week I have them in Amsterdam! Spending money has never been this easy:



Now, since I have the 19" AMG 030 wheels laying around too I tought to weigh to see what's what. Comparing 19" to 20" and withouth wheels, so not really scientific. Yet somewhat informative:



AMG 19" 030 2 piece: front 16,2 kg / rear 16,6 kg (1,5J makes almost no difference?)
HRE 20" 3 piece: front 12,8 kg / rear 13,8kg

A healthy difference. Now lets hope 20" (wider) tires don't weigh more than the 19" tires, then we have a win!
