Here you go...

Since this pic was taken, I've replaced the rims, but these should fit your description...

Khobalt, you added the 17" rims afterwards?


hey Khobalt, so you changed the 16" from manufacture and added these 17" AMG without putting in aftermarket springs and shocks? so in this picture... still same original springs and shocks? can you attach another closer picture to the rims and tires? cuz i want to know the gap between the tires and the fender of the car... thanks a lot

You can look at a picture of any US-spec SLK that came with the sport package. They came with 17-inch wheels and the springs/shocks are identical to the base SLK with 16-inch wheels.
