Test fitted some 19" C63 507 replica wheels earlier on the E550, any thoughts? I'm considering buying these.

I think they look too light for the car. Big, heavy sedan looks better with chunkier wheels.

^No idea what you mean (I assume you're talking about the spoke design being too "open" or not enough of them), but thanks for the feedback

Exactly.

I don't mind the design but the car definitely needs to get lower for 19s. Black wheels for me always gets dirty too fast.

I think they look great. Wouldn't mind finding a set for mine.

I agree with the "too light" comment. I was considering that for our C207 but even for the coupe im imagining the spokes to be too skinny and looks flimsy or something.

I like the look

Thanks for the feedback gentlemen not at all concerned with build quality but I'm debating the color. Ill post up more pics if I do decide to get them

I don't mind the wheel design, i think it looks up to date and sporty, however imo if I was to put some of these on my 550 my caliper/brake setup would have to be immaculate and me personally the color of the wheels would need to change. Black on black is my least favorite thing to see... unless it on a vette or viper. My only exceptions hahaha

edit: lowering links would serve your setup, if you are going to run this setup, alot of justice. Just my two cents!

AMGAffalterbach

Agreed on both counts, the car had just been sprayed down so the rotors/calipers look dirty in that pic, but I'm thinking black on black probably isn't my cup of tea. Just repainted the calipers too in a very close to stock silver.

is that with spacers ?

AMGAffalterbach

No that was not with spacers, just a good offset wheel. Didn't end up purchasing them.

dchl21

thanks a lot ... that's weird tho ... its c63 fitment usually ..

AMGAffalterbach

No idea, being replicas, the owner of the wheels bought them for his W211 at the time so I guess he chose that specific offset. Not sure what was available as far as fitment.
