Need advice-Lowering, Wheels

Can anyone tell me which products/shop to use to lower my 2004 E55? I am considering Vellano VSP wheels ( http://vellanowheels.com) either 19s or 20s. Any recommendation on size? Thanks in advance!

2005 e55
if price isn't an issue i would recommend the kleemann lowering module it gives you the adjustability and the lowest drop of all of the modules.

Save the money and get MBenzNL to do the drop for you while keeping your car under warranty. He can do it using Star Diagnostics and it really does work.

Check the search option on the site...I think I saw a step by step instruction on the W211/W210 AMG section.

Since you live in MD go to Altered Atmosphere and ask for Mike the owner. They designed a lower module that cost me under $300. He owns a E55 and used his car to design. He lowered my car over 6 months ago and it cost me under $400 installed. Go on his web page and see pics of my car before and after the installation. AWESOME!!!!!

Mike Mahaffey - 301.330.8835

btw - they have a dynojet so you can get some real HP &TQ numbers for your beast also. You may want him to install the snorkel mod also while you wait.

JKY, I sent you a PM - I've made a few posts about the various lowering techniques and if you need any help let me know.
