I think the moral of the story is "don't throw stones from a glass house."

Or maybe, "don't throw chromes on your C-class."

Seriously, this is a car forum not a Barbie forum. It's all in fun and he agreed to play along when he started throwing jabs...albeit pretty girly ones.

we never said it looked rice... if you're gonna post pics of your ride then expect people to comment on em whether their negative or positive... but when you start calling out other members, especially someone thats been a member of this forum for a long time, cuz you can't take the criticism then you better expect to get flamed on...

What are you talkin' 'bout, J? Who doesn't like your rims? I think what you did with them is bad-*** (even though they're stock rims j/k).

just because they're Mayas doesn't automatically make them 'nice'. Maya does have some good designs, but not everything are good. It's not the matter that they are chrome, some people are not the fan of chrome and some people are, but the design of those doesn't suit the car at all. I've seen plenty of those on the Caddy CTS. IMO STM, RT5 or even the MRS would look better on your car than those.

in fact, i think your car would look better with the Mahdi wheels on this C55. even tho they're still not my style.

i personally dont think the rims look bad. a lot of ppl on this forum hate on people with chrome rims. a black benz with chrome wheels is hot imo i'm not saying this to all chrome wheels but his wheels are nice. i've never seen that type of wheels on a w203 before.

Of course it would be a guy with CHROME REPLICA wheels coming to his defense!
