I just put 19"s on my SLK too. I think it could use a drop (really only in the back), though its not crazy high looking like some cars I've seen. I've been thinking about dropping it, but there are mixed opinions on whether or not the fenders have to be rolled. As of right now, I have no rubbing.

We can't attach anymore so you have to get them hosted elsewhere, then just link them here using the 'IMG' tab when you post.

I got my rims!!! 19x7.5 FRT, 19x8.5 RR Foose speedster rims and 225/35/19 FRT, 245/30/19 BFG KDW tires. They fit like a glove, Any bigger in the front and they would rub. My Dig camera is broken so I get a picture up as soon as possible. It looks so SWEET!!!
