SL63 Stock Wheels & Tires - what size spacers? (Pic added!)
First post since buying my first SL last week. It's a 2009 SL63 with the factory AMG 19" wheels on it. I'm not planning on doing any drivetrain mods but I am thinking about spacers and a mild drop. I've done my searching but I'm just not coming up with a solid answer.
So who makes the right spacers for this car and in what sizes are recommended?
And also which lowering kit would you guys recommend?
Thanks!

Porsche guy who drives SL63 w/ perf pkg AND perf suspension
as with most of these , the wheels are all the same size. I used 10mm spacers and it works good. 10mm spacer has to be hub centric, and 40mm lugbolts, no longer on rear because they dont work.
You can get it all on ebay for a couple hundred.

I use 25mm front and rear
but my wheels are +45 front and +50 rear
I assume yours is OEM so if you add 10mm to the front you'll bring it out to +25 which will totoally flush with your fender
I'm not sure about the rear......I like to know how far can the rear go too....
