finally installed 20's.....check it out -->

I finally replaced the stock 18' chrome AMGs that came with the car. I really wanted something with a deep dish.....these were the deepest I could find......4 1/4 in the back.

I'm also selling the stock 18' rims and tires.....if anyone is interested PM me.

I had the chrome AMG's as well but the lip really changes the look of the car.

Are these the EXE wheels that I've seen advertised on eBay? What is your thought about the fitment to the car? What kind/size tires did you use?

Looks Nice, But I think you should have gotten 305/25/20 in the back. Your tire looks very stretched and is not the proper size for your vehicle. do a 255/30/20 up front, and youll be right where you need to be.

but overall looks ok.

Thanks for the feedback, I agree the tires don't look right. The guy at the rim shop told me some story about tire width and how if I went any wider it would screw up the computer system.....so I believed him and went with the 275/30s in the back. I plan on changing the tires soon.

Yeah, these are the EXE Konvex that you see on eBay. I just had them chromed. There are no problems with fitment. The tires are Falken FK452, 275/30/20 in the back and 245/35/20 in the front.

IMO- take the wheels back. I'll sell you my 19" bespoke 2 piece wheels that came with the 63 030. The car would look much better.

Your rims look fine. take the tires and abuse the **** out of them enough to have to get some new ones in 5K miles. then buy some descent tires with the correct size. Or you could go back to the shop and make them make it right. Tell them you talked to MB and they said that there is nothing wrong with having the right size tires for the wheels.
