I decided to go wider all around with my wheels so I rolled and flared all my fenders more and I lowered the car more....almost DUT low.
I used to have 19x8.5 and 19x10
I added a 4" lip on the rear wheels and my old rear 2.5" lip on the front. My inner rear barrels were 7.5" and my fronts were 7" so now I have:
19x9.5 = 2.5" lip
Tires = 225/35/19
19x11.5 = 4" lip
245/35/19
I will be getting some 275/30/19 for the rears because the stretch is a little to much right now.
Enjoy the pics!

The car rides fine. It's a little stiffer because I'm sitting lower so it handles a little better.

thats good.....
can't wait to change up my style as well.....i've done one mod already, didn't have a ride to drop off my car to paint the roof last week and then my mom's surgery was going on as well but hopefully i'll drop off the ride this week and it 2 weeks visit ed to get some little things done and then the wheels should be here in 2-3 weeks and i'm going to drop the ride more without the hamann lip for now

Sam you are a fucking modaholic! Holy shit that looks so damn amazing. VIP styled FTW. Are you getting a new photoshoot by Pyrun? Rolling shots would look sick with those new lips.
I might need 19" tires if you are selling them, depends on if I get Renntechs

Thanks Shake....
I wanted to hang out with the guys today cuz they went on a photo shoot mission today but I was planning to spend time with the MOM so I couldn't make it. I'm sure Pyrun will be posting pics later today.
I'm waiting to have some pics taken by Pyrun for the next Shake Sig.

Just you wait til i graduate, you'll have some real competition.
By the way, i always wondered. Have you ever thought about getting a wider rear bumper? or are you planning to keep the brabus rear?

No...I plan on keeping the Brabus rear end. I did play with the idea of doing something custom with a rear diffuser like the one Vostiner makes for the CLK63 BS and re-piping my exhaust to fit it custom but I don't know which diffuser to have custom fit so that idea is not going to happen....plus I would also have to buy a different rear bumper to make it all work.

By far one of my FAVORITE W208's ever.

Thanks,
driver side rubs a little but it's because I have a 7mm spacer on it. I need a 5mm spacer to get it where it doesn't rub...probably this weekend.

With your wheels being so wide in the front and back, how's your tire wear? is it perfect? okay? bad? or really bad?

That's what i forgot to ask...
With your wheels being so wide in the front and back, how's your tire wear? is it perfect? okay? bad? or really bad? |
Tire wear will get worse because I lowered the car more so I have more negative camber wear.
My solution to that problem is that I don't buy expensive tires anymore....the cheaper tires last longer and are like $450 installed from where I buy them at. They end up lasting about almost 2 years after rotation.
