More Euro than VIP, my 1995 Merc C-class

How I bought it around November last year

And how it looks today. I know, spoiler is going soon! Toying with new wheels as well, it's my daily, I'd like the front a bit lower.

yes 17"

I know I should have kept the faces silver, I regret painting them now.

I import Work wheels into the UK from Japan, hoping to put some VS-XX on the car next year, just need to save some pennies up.

I think the 17" is perfect on your car, especially with all that lip.

As for Japanese wheels on Euro cars.

I've had Japanese wheels on my VW Golf since 2002.

gone back to black grille, it's more gangsta, more stretch on the front tyres too, 205-40-17 instead of 215-40-17, needs spacers on the front now.

Move to 18" on the wheels, tug the rear arches slightly.

Either Work VS-SD or I have just got hold of some Work Kleemann in 18".

18x10" ET20 rears
18x9" ET20 fronts

Will try and get it as low as it is currently, it's very slightly underwheeled at the moment, needs 18" to finish the job.

I need to show this to my neighbor! He just recently picked one of these up, and dosen't know what to do with it. I'm going to try to sway him over to VIP (he was talking about getting a camber kit, new wheels, and pulling the fender) I think your car just might persuade him. ;)

Re: More Euro than VIP, my 1995 Merc C-class

Unless he's going 19" there's no need to kit the car.

Mine's dropped on it's 4rse currently on 17", but next move is 18" and try and retain the same stance, but with wider lips.
