That is not my car, I just like the looks with WALD kits on it. I just have 20' Maya STM on my E500.

How do you like your CLS55 over the E55? I need to get 4 door sedan for my wife and seriously looking at CLS55. However, there's beginning to be interest in the new M5.

I love the CLS55. So far. I haven't been able to really get on it since I am still breaking her it. We'll see how it changes after the break in period. It feels quite similar to be honest but until it's lowered and I get my wheels on it's hard to compare. From the exterior though, there is no comparison. The E55 looks dated when it's next to the CLS55.

He's got my garage beat by a country mile but I'd put my two sleds up to against his any day (MBWerks did all the work and these are taken in front of their shop). ENJOY!

My E55 w/ 19" Carlsson 1/16 Ultralights.






My '05 SL55 w/ 20" Brabus Monoblock VI Multipiece (chrome).

These Ultralights are fantastic!
What offset did you use on Front and Rear? I know that you can choose anything you wish from the factory.
What tyres and what size FA & RA?
Any difference in handling and ride quality?
