Very Nice
You can never ever ever beat HRE wheels for what they are and the product they provide.
We carry them and I have never had a single person not like their wheels.
Plus I get all giggly inside when I see at set come int the shop

Is it safe to go lower in front with the CF Tom's kit?

The rear looks good even at stock height, but the front wheel gap made the wheels look small. A little drop helped the look a lot, but I wish it was still a tad lower. Maybe I'm too greedy & will regret scraping later on. Lol

I wouldn't go too much lower. The Tom's front lip is pretty low, and I'd hate for scraping a CF lip. But if you were planning to lower it just a tad more, some members have used velcro on the underside of the lip or some sort of skidding material (see skateboard shops- really!) for something that would help in case of accidentally coming in contact with pavement or unforeseen bumps in the roadway.
Other than that, it looks spot on! Can't wait for the shots with the C63.

Exactly. I didn't think it would work, but a few of my friends have it on their lip kits. I wouldn't dare ride too low. It's just a big hassle for me with my current ride height, but they swear by this material. I mean, very rarely will anyone look underneath the front lip, but it would help from really butchering the underside of the Tom's front lip. One friend mentioned that its similar to the material his dad uses for boats.

Yes, 255/35 was in my plan once I need new tires. I hope it will help close the gap a bit more w/o lowering the front more.
Thx Brian, I am using the velcro & it did saved me few scratches when we tried to removed the car from the lift. Lol

Btw, the rear is not rubbing with 19x10.5 +53 & 275/30/19 PSS.. So i was thinking of upgrading to 285/30/19 next but PSS doesn't make that size. I'm pretty sure 295/30/19 will rub (?) & I don't want to roll the fenders.

Ideally everyone would be running a 255/35/ and 295/30. That is the closest to the stock diameter. I am currently looking into wheels and have been considering wheels with more conservative offsets so I can shoehorn that 295/30 in the rear.
