E55 AMG Changes... Input?

Hey guys did this over a month ago but never got around to posting up any pics, I resprayed my wheels color matched instead of the gloss black that they were and also raised the car up quite a bit to reduce tire wear till I get air ride again.
Enjoy the iphone pics threw a couple in of my buddy Vu's W203 as well

Old look.

Those rims look great! What brand/model/size are they?

The stance however is a little to (no offense intended) "ricey" for me. That much camber on an AMG seems excessive. Now if you had an air suspension where you could go back to "normal" height on crusing, then settle at the lowered level when stopped/parked, then that would be pretty sweet.

Thanks! They're Monarch Euro 63's 19x8.5 front and 19x95 rear spaced out 20mm all around. And no worries haha to each their own but I am planning on getting air again used to have it on my 203 wagon... The camber now with the spring pads in isn't too bad but with the old springs was going thru tires even with flipping them every 2-3 motnhs
