Once Again...Proud to be a CLS Owner!
Probably nothing you haven't seen before but I was pretty impressed. I was exiting the highway onto a busy main street, on my way home. I saw an opening in the traffic so I punched the accelerator hoping to make it in the gap. Thanks to my traction control I managed to only roll the tires a few times before getting traction and darting into the gap. The impressive part is when I hit second gear I lost traction again and began to light my tires up. Granted the traction control quickly took over, but I was impressed. I had to be doing about 20 or so mph! My wife, who was in the car with me, was amazed as well. If I had kept my foot to floor I wonder if I could have caught third gear? Probably not, but I was impressed with second on drive pavement. Oh well, just thought I would share my excitement for my car. Good day!

Yes, currently I am runnign the OEM's. I really don't drive the car hard enough to change them, plus they were new when i got the car about 4 months ago.
The only thing I am worried about thats OEM is the damn tranny, but I will keep my fingers crossed!!!
