The 19” SIZE make the car look great. On the other hand, those wheels break the MB style. They look more like Japanese car’s wheels. I’m not a chrome fan neither.

I don't like chrome wheels. For chrome rims they're okay.
Lowering the car would be too much. With the ultra low profile tires the wheel well gap look just right.

Wouldn't be so bad if they were silver and had less spokes (looks too busy IMO). That's why I really like the classic look of BBS wheels.

They look pretty nice for chrome, but not a fan of chrome wheels either. Personally i love a gunmetal finish with a polished lip
