It does need to get lowered....rear isn't too bad but the front doesn't look as well.

Look nice with those black rims. There is a module for your car that can lower it more i believe. I think rnn tech have them at www.renntechmercedes.com under suspension cost 1500.

I love the car and the wheels....but not together. Imo, full faced wheels work better on luxo sedans. Sporty cars work better with open faced wheels.
Still, a nice ride.

Funny I was just on MBworld and I was saying it looked nice, congrats. Not sure if this is a next step for you but we have the kleeman lowering module for you.

Adjustable links is another option but a lowering would bring the look of the car full circle.
