Okay so i have had my rims since the beginning of July and every one tells me they dont look right on my car and im starting not to like them either. I have 18 inch MSR rims they are also staggered. They are a flat black color with a chrom trim. But anyways i have been looking for new rims and ive been keeping an eye on some Mandrus Millennium. Any suggestions?

Also my budget is looking around $1800 to about $2000.

Thanks,
Al

I agree, your wheels look fine (I think they look great!) you just need a drop.

I agree with everyone who said your wheels are fine.

You need springs. If you lower it, it will look proportioned.

Here is the thing. Whatever you get you are still going to have a gap. Since you already have rims I would look into Coilovers or springs first (choice would be coils over springs)
For 1800 you can get Tein SS coils (not Basics) and probably installed too.

Or if you really want to get new wheels then budget yourself so atleast you can get springs as well.

from what I've heard, stay away from tein basics... If you want wheels with a lip, you should get some, but I'd say drop first.

i dont like you wheels either, mesh wheels are only good in silver.
you have two choices :
1 - Refinish your wheels and drop your car
2 - Buy the milleniums or TSW bremmas in 19", they look very classy on the w203
You could increase your budget by (...$) if you sell your current wheels in the classified section, then you would be able to buy new wheels, and drop you car.

Once you lower it, those wheels would look just fine on your car
