The day my life started

[Mr. Jones]

Well done Bro!!!

Update: I wanted to keep the theme of updated, but yet still be a little bit of a sleeper. So, I did the wheels and E63 front end conversion (updated front bumper) + a few other maintenance items, power mods to come in the next few weeks. I ditched the wrap idea since the paint is in such good shape and looks really good cleaned up.

 

Wheels are CLS55 staggered 19x8.5 front and 19x9.5 rears finished in satin gun metal all wrapped in Nittos

Those MB wheels look perfect!

 

I've always liked a lip, but CLS wheels are gorgeous in their solid-but-simple design.:thumbup::thumbup:

Damn! That looks good. Almost makes me consider selling the focus for one.

The rear is a little tricky to install just because it's located in a somewhat tight space. The fronts you don't even have to take the wheels off of the car if you don't want to, you can jack up the front of the car and access them pretty easily.

 

The front of the car has a surprising amount of camber from the factory and a horrible camber curve that gives quite a bit extra camber when lowered. I didn't go too extreme with ours but the camber is still pretty aggressive. Doesn't really bother me much but you might want to invest in the factory camber bolts and have your alignment guy install them when you get it aligned after lowering.

 

Picture of ours on the 20's after lowering for reference.

I love those wheels Andy! I'm really surprised you can go that low just with the links haha. Did you ever get any warning lights or anything?

Nope..no issues and a surprising amount of ground clearance. I think it looks lower than it is with the big wheels and rubber band tires on it. It's got the stockers on it right now and doesn't appear as low even though the height hasn't changed in the last 6 years

Stas Makarov has one of these with bolt mods and it was a blast to drive.

[Versluis]

Looks awesome man. Front end looks like it needs a front lip now.

Killing it. Nice wheel choice.
