Brabus has announced their tuning program for the latest Mercedes-Benz SLK – the R172 model.

The roadster received aerodynamics package consisting of two front spoiler lips, rear fenders, rear diffuser and a rear spoiler on the trunk lid. All aerodynamic-enhancement elements also serve more than just a visual function; they reduce lift in the rear as well.

In the gallery you will find BRABUS Monoblock F wheels painted the new exclusive Liquid Titanium color. The dimensions are 8.5J x 20" in front and in size 9.5J x 20" on the rear fitted with high-performance tires - Continental, Pirelli or YOKOHAMA in sizes 235/30 ZR 20 and 275/25 ZR 20, respectively.

The tuner also offers custom-developed sport springs. They are calibrated to work with the production shocks, and lower the ride height of the two-seater by some 30 mm.

BRABUS also offers various versions of its high-performance brake systems for the new SLK.

The performance upgrades include: the BRABUS ECO PowerXtra B20 CGI, BRABUS ECO PowerXtra B25 CGI and BRABUS ECO PowerXtra B25S CGI.
