20 Inch concave wheels

Hey guys!
So I finally bought some wheels. I went with the Vertini Magic concave wheels, went with the staggered option with 20x10 on the rear running 245/35 tires and 20x8.5 with 235/30 tires.
Pretty good install by the shop. Although can only drive with myself and a passenger.. 3 people has to much rubbing. Enjoy the pics!

I'm not really a big fan of it either, but the concave takes the eyes away from it

Looks great You may want to consider doing a little grinding of some tabs in the rear to alleviate any rubbing issues, and maybe roll your front fenders. What offsets are your running?

So you turned your four door sedan into a two seat coupe that looks like a four door sedan. Makes perfect sense.

More proof that you don't have to spend 5K on wheels to make your car look good.

Yeah, it ended up being 3500 for wheels, tires, lowering and lipping the guard (dont know what they done for that).

The ride isn't too bad, but there is abit of road noise.. Pot holes are a big issue in Sydney though

Hey Bnzova, I'm going to put 20s on my w203 as well. What offsets are your fronts and rears? How's your merc lowered?
