(I posted this a while back, but since we have many new members I thought I would repost the pics.)

Below are the pics of my wheels, 1999 C43 and shock, spring package.

Wheels are SSR Competitions. Front 17"x8.5" and Rears 17"x9.5". They weigh approx. 15 lbs each.

Shocks are Penske's 7500 series with adjustalbe compression and rebound. They work very well and are rebuildable and tunable.

Spring Perches adjust the car for Ht. by turning that 19mm bolt that goes through the lower control arm. The perches support the Eibach Race springs 2.5" I.D.

You have done some very unique mods to your car. It looks pretty good. Do you have more pictures? Did you have someone do this? Did you do this yourself?

Im interested in the mods. The brakes are killer, how do they work?

Thanks. I started with some race car weight jackers parts and then had to machine everything to fit the C Class. All the machining and fitting was done by myself.

The brakes work very good, stop on a dime and never fade.

I should update the pics as there is lots of new stuff since those pics were taken.
