Smile Mercedes E63S Edition 1 on BC Forged Wheels and Some Crackles And Pops Video

Hi Members,

My buddy just recorded some videos of my car with my current set up with BC Forged Wheels. Thought I share this with everyone to see what the wheels look like running 20x10 and 20x11's with stock size Michelin PS4S tires.

Make sure to turn up the volume to hear the pure stock AMG exhaust notes (some crackle and pops). My car is not tuned at all. Just DP's and lowered and with wheels as I am trying to keep my Edition 1 clean as my daily driver.

Enjoy and leave a comment as well!!!

You nailed it with the BC Forged. The specs are amazing. Just made my decision that much easier to go with BC.

That's the problem! i can't make up my mind. There seem to be three choices that speak to me, in order of preference:

TD03
RT50
TD02

I like how the TD series gives a deep dish look, but getting another mesh wheel (TD02) wouldn't change much of the outside appearance of the car since I already have the OEM mesh wheels. Which is why I have two sets of wheels listed that are 5 spoke, but not many of our rides have aftermarket 5 spoke wheels, which makes it hard to visualize.

Basically.......... I'm no closer to making a decision today as compared to 2 months ago.

Those will be nice choice...I was going to get either TD02 or TD06 and decided on TD06 because I love the classic mesh wheel look with a nice step lip. Either way it will look really good on your ride.

Are you going silver brush finish as well?

Very clean. How did you lower it. Did you run into any issues? I have a W213 that I’m considering lowering but not sure yet….

Still hoping that a 5 spoke design will appeal to me, but I need to do some more research and looking for inspiration.

Color, no idea. Gloss black (the safest choice) is too played out, and while I like a brushed silver/gunmetal look, I had that on my previous vehicle and wanted to go with something different. Brushed Bronze looks nice to me, but again, how will it look on each wheel, and how will that wheel look on an E63 Wagon?

Is this what women go through when they try to pick out shoes?

LOL I can totally relate to that last sentence...hahaha.

I think I looked online, looked at various designs, used various "visualizers" even uploading pics of my own car to see what a wheel might look like, and it still took me almost 9 months to pick my first choice, the Vossen HF5 in satin bronze for my 2016 wagon. Haven't done anything with my 2018 yet, but would like to get a summer setup. Debating going with 19" wheels to give me more options for high performance tires. the 20" options seem to be out of stock a lot.

Good luck on pulling the trigger eventually...

It is lowered using a hand held module plug into the OBD port and using your big screen to adjust to any height you want in seconds. It's is the best mod for our cars with a fraction of a cost.

No rubbing no issue...car feels more planted even more so and the lower ride gives it an aggressive stance now.

I got mines from MW Mods for around $590 USD shipped.
