305 x 20s - pictures finally up

OK pictures of the wheels are finally up. The car is a 2004 CL55--I am told the fenders come rolled so as to support wider tires. In the front are 20x9 with a 245/30 ZR tire and in the rear are 20x10.5 with a 305/25 ZR tire. Brabus Monoblock VI (real) bought used for $3000 with tires. Car is lowered about an inch, so on the freeway it does occasionally rub. This can be prevented by raising the car with the button on the dash. I have had the wheels on now for about 6 months, no complaints except for the usual low profile pothole concerns.

ARRRG guys, gave you the wrong tire size up front! TIRE SIZE IS ACTUALLY 255/30x20, not 245/30x20. The rear was correct, 305/25x20. Really sorry about that, and it is too late to edit.

As far as the color combo goes, I have never seen another in the same color as mine, but I bought it used. How to find out the name of the color?
