What size tires and wheels did you end up with? Are you going to get that camber kit? If so, how much is it? Are you going to install it yourself? Just curious.
I too am interested in that CF diffuser. I think your car with a diffuser and front lip would look great. Not sure if that front lip would last in the bay area though. |
Thanks Dan! I stayed with the 265s in the rear had a set of new tires from the last wheels. My buddy said he deff noticed difference and said that I might want a camber kit because of the tire wear will be quite high but he also said that my handling would be a little bit better as it is now. Since my car is not a daily driver anymore Im not to worried about the road even though they are pretty damn shitty. As for now I'm going to go with the diffuser to match the rims mean look maybe a front lip but most likely will have no money left over after the performance mods. I gotta have a little for next semester
NY is killing me price wise!

Is it part no:Manufacturer Part #: 29218.2 (atleast from tirerack). Thanks and again stunning wheels.
Not sure about the SLK55, but on a few other cars I've owned that I personally changed the springs on sometimes there's a plastic fastener that sits on the top and and the bottom of the springs that can account for .25" at each end....maybe it was left out? |
For in for on spring specs Dan is the guy to talk to i dont know to much. I ordered the ones from Tire Rack but place in LI order it directly for me because on the site they say they dont have it or stock is limited which i was told was not true. I got them shipped for like $270 or something I also replaced the spring pads in the back with a #1 spring pad. The second I saw that car I noticed it was a lot lower maybe to low for some of the roads around here.
