Here are some updated pictures with my new to me W210 E55 wheels. I bought them from one of the guys on the E55 board and had them all refinished because they were in pretty rough shape. Tire sizes are 255.35.18 in the rear and 225.40.18 in the front. There is some slight rubbing on the front and rear over VERY bumpy roads. Keep in mind that my car is pretty low.

Good lord, those C43 are so damn sexy on the 18s. I WISH WISH WISH AMG made these in 19s! I;m still debating getting replica 19s cuz I love the look of the Aero II so much.
