2006 E55 AMG
Thanks Ed at HMS!

When I picked my car up from my tech the day before going to LA I was told that the inner tires were DONE! This didn't give me much time to get any replacements so I figured I would give Ed over at HMS a call when I arrived in LA. Ed did not disappoint, he gave me an excellent price on some Hankook V12's. Initially I wanted to try the Conti DW's but since I was on short notice the tires weren't available that day. Either way I went on Ed's recommendation and I'm very happy with the price and performance of these tires. They have a much better ride than my Toyo's ever had and overall perform well. Do they bite as hard as Toyo's T1R's, I doubt it but it's not like a get traction on the street anyways.

I drive my car daily and I go through tires fairly quick so getting a well performing tire at a reasonable cost is a win win for me. Thanks again Ed and HMS for helping out a fellow E55.....

Your worst nightmare...
Ed is a stand up guy. His work is a work of Art. Recently he did my Brake calipers and they came out smoking!!! Also refinished my Vorsteiner CF lip. , Definitely understand you...

HMS has been a part of the SoCal MB community for a number of years. Very good friends and facility.

BTW, Ed is an awesome friend but by no means the Artist. His Brother, John is a TRUE street artist.

How did the CF lip turn out? POST PICS!!
