Thanks!

The wheels are HRE 845's. 20x9's up front with 255 30 20's and the rears are 20x11's with 305 25 20's. The rear wheels have 4 inch lips. They look killer in my opinion.

Not selling the stock wheels. I had issues with the sale of the E55 wheels not worth the hassle so I'll just keep them.

Redlinerobert,

May I ask where you get the garage floor? did you install yourself? If so, is it difficult installation? May I ask how much?

Thanks,
hlkc

Armstrong commercial grade vinyl floor tiles. They look great once installed. Easy too, I bought them at ProSource Flooring. I want to say they were something like $3.00 a sq ft. Cheap, effective, and extremely easy to clean.

My neighbors think I'm nuts though Every Saturday I use a blower to clean the garage and then I mop the floor. You could eat off the floor it's so clean. If I wash the car and there is some water on the tires when I bring the car in, I mop behind the tires to get rid of the tracks. I know, I have issues.....

You don't have issues Robert. We have a Terrazo (spelling) floor in our garage and I too treat it the same way as you. I just need to get some cabinets installed now. I should have just had the home builder install them when the house was being beilt. Oh well.

Oh Robert....you make us all feel so ill! Are you sure that's not your living room and you have a Murphy bed in the wall? Or maybe it is your garage and you still have a Murphy bed in the wall so you can sleep with your children

Just a pleasure to admire...I like the yellow car also

Well, no competition for Robert, but here is my garage with some cabinets installed. It really provides lots of storage space and they can hide a lot of "stuff" if you get my drift. I had them installed when building the house.

BTW...those spots on the floor are from a '90 300TE wagon, the engine which was notorious for dripping oil.

Nice, as an architect, I love the way you installed the grid off axis. Makes the space feel bigger than it really is. Nice job!

Woops, I missed prev. post..

No problems with the 11" rears? Rubbing? Just trying to make the assumption; same chassis as W211 so it might fit mine.
