Help with wheels
Hello everyone. I have a w210 e55 2001 mercedes, its my first merc to be honest, and i need some help with rims. Im interested in buying Brabus monoblock III. But they are not that easy to find . So i was wondering if you guys could help me by giving me some suggestions on what type of rims i could get. Im thinking of Rohana rc10, but i dont know how they would look on the car. Also i would like to lower the car, but dont know what type of springs i can get because of the self leveling my car is equipped with. (sorry for the bad english, i live in sweden)

I like the originals, but i would like a "deeper dish" rims if you know what i mean. http://www.garaget.org/?car=386138&image=3669310 there you can see how it looks right now. I would like to lower it before i buy new rims. Maybe i`ll like the look more if the car was a little bit lower.

I did not think sedans came with self leveling suspensions, at least over here it was only on wagons. I am running vogtland springs and they give a nice drop with #1 spring pads.

That looks awesome. All i know is that i have a button that makes the car lower it self at high speed. And its all original. Ive been trying to find coilovers for my car with no luck.

KW and Ksport make coilovers for w210s but with SLS it might be more complicated to install.

I've seen Euro/Asian E55 sedans with SLS suspension, rear heated seats and other lovely options.
@V8Benzo , Maybe lowering is done thru SDS?
