This is the rims you would need.

Is that a short wheel base W220?

The rear doors are tiny

can you handle constructive criticisms?

I'm sure we all appreciate the work that you put into it.

me personally:
1) rear spoiler kills it
2) rims don't match
3) rear tires are too thick (like drag/slick tires)
4) w220 is too slender to pull the widebody look, may be the w221 can achieve this better

If you can ditch the spoiler, get better looking wheels with a slightly smaller tires, you can make it look a little more presentable

other than that, it is unique

im surprise that nobody likes wide body here cause in asia wide body are popular, even in japan. thanks for all the comments anyway im thinking of changing front bumper in the future tho but right now im broke.

you mean i should get tire xxx/19/25? cause i'm using xxx/19/30 at the moment but then ill have to b more careful driving off-road.

Lower it, change the rims, remove the spoiler and it'll look pretty good

Yes widebody is popular in the USA too but not on the w220. The widebody clk and widebody older c and e class dtm sedans look better when widened. For some reason the w220 doesn't look good wide , and I like VIP style cars

Only Mercedes & AMG get it right. The W140, W220, and lastly W221, were all screwed up by every single company out there, and Yes a Big Yes. Brabus aswell, they just mess up a good looking special Factory perfected Mercedes S-Class.

Sorry gentlemen, those images above are Devastating to my eyes. I mean what where the guys who made them THINKING?

Where to start? The Italians or the Germans?
Drop it 2", lose the ricer lights, and I think it could look very sharp. Take it easy guys lol. Good for the OP actually doing something radical with a 220!
