What do you get when you cross a CLS with an ML?
I recently picked up an ML350 as a grocery getter. One thing I couldn't stand was the jacked up ride height (it's jacked up even for an SUV) with puny 17" wheels. I installed a set of 20" CLS-look (yes, they're replica, but my wife drives this too) and lowered the truck almost 2" with H&R springs. Installing the springs was a pain (took 6 hours!), but it was worth it.
Here are the results:
