Wheels look awesome.
Did you buy S class clear markers?
I feel the car feels a bit naked without wearing the impressive V8 bi-turbo emblems but it looks clean

thanx iClique, tires are 255/35 and 305/30 et 25 and 35...
that is the second finish I've had, first was satin silver, a really nice mellow color that went well with the paint........then I got hooked on the tint brush clear........also have tint brush clear on my 550 and on my TT too

What do you mean by "et 25 and 35" and Vic55 said the same thing, "I created the et 25/35 set up for HRE on this car and we pushed the rear with 11's"

Isn't it a 35/30 set up? What width are the wheels in the front?

Wide body for sure and to accomodate the 315 or 325 rubber.

25/35 are the wheel offsets not the tire profiles. The 35/30 are Hyperion's tire profiles on his 19's.
