Greed1, beautiful car. Grabber blue is definitely my favorite color.

Thank you. I thought the same thing when I bought it but after seeing some of these other s197's online, I'm not sure.

I currently have 20" Cobra R wheels with Eibach pro-kit lowering springs. The 20" Cobra wheels came on the car when I purchased it used.
Personally, I prefer 18" or 19" to add some meat on the tires and allow the drive to feel more comfortable. Good luck!

I defiantly think that 20s would be your best bet, you'll have so much more options to choose from and a good balanced look. I think that you'll be happy with the end result, especially since you already plan on lowering it.

Those wheels flow nicely with the grabber.

Here is my 2011 GT with the 19" wheels from the Brembo package (albeit with gloss black powder coat). I have the Eibach Sportline kit lowering 1.4" in the front and 2" in the rear. My only issues were the 3" Magnaflow pipes hitting the rear axle after dropping it - this required some effort at the muffler shop. All good now! She is REALLY low - awesome in corners, but I call speed bumps speed mountains, and there is no taking her to the automatic car wash!
