Not sure if it's just a bad picture/angle...but those rims look way too big...especially the rears. Are they actually touching the rear fender? Stock setup looked much better

Got rid of the Audi wheels? New wheels look better, but pretty aggressive stance.

Those wheels are absolutely perfect for that car. Euro as hell. MErcedes owners are very conservative. Your style is very Audish and Ultra Euro! Good Job. Keep it up.

So far the nicest W204 I've seen on these boards.

What's wrong with VIP Benz?

Although true that VIP style is originally JDM, there are plenty of VIP Euros (S and 7series). The style when done right is sick as hell.

This car looks freakin amazing. Good job! I would have it stick out less a little in the rear, but thats just me.

Won't be comfortable though. *thud* *thud thud* *thud thud thud thud thud thud* ;P
