My CL65 with KAHN wheels

Hi everyone i just got my car lowered and fitted set of KAHN wheels

20*9 front with 255/30ZR20 conti3
20*11 back with 305/25ZR20 Conti3

I had some bad luck finding the right tire sizes, ordered PZero's 255/35ZR20 and 305/35ZR20 this is to match the OME of the tire sizes, the good thing about the KAHN design they are made for the CL and fit withought spacers, in this pic i lowered the car about 2inches and i will be pulling it back up half an inch its too low.

please guys need some feed back on what you think of the cars new look

thanks everyone

I think it looks great but I would consider a fine line between the outer edge of the rim and the tire. Silver or even white comes to mind. For me, some seperation is necessary, but again it depends on the look you are going for.

I believe someone did a photoshop not to long ago for Trez in the CLS section. He has a white car, did all black wheels and someone was kind enough to show him how it would look with the stripe I am suggesting.

I had Kahn wheels on my Rover and I loved them. Great choice!

only suggestions would be a light darkening of the rear lights and honestly I don't like it dropped that low.
