Mercedes-AMG A35 Upgraded with SSR GTX04 + Continental MaxContact 7 at Autosport Tyreworld
The Mercedes-AMG A35 is already a compact performance weapon — turbocharged, AWD, sharp handling, and unmistakably AMG. But when this beautiful A35 visited Autosport Tyreworld, the owner wanted sharper response, improved grip, and a motorsport-inspired wheel upgrade.
We fitted a stunning wheel-and-tyre package that transforms both performance and styling:
💥 Wheels: SSR GTX04 — 18×8.5 +44 | 5×112
💥 Tyres: Continental MaxContact 7 — 235/40R18
The result?
A perfect blend of lightweight agility + daily-friendly comfort + serious road grip.
