Oldie but Newbie -

Hello

I am not new to the forum, but new to having any input. I see lots of cls550's out there and everyone seems to have their own style. I have a 2012 cls550. Just put on some new 20" shoes and I am very pleased. Other mods to come. Here are a few pics.

My boss had wheels like that on his CLS550 but he ended up going back to the stock 18" AMG wheels because he kept bending them and going through tires as a result. I swear, every few weeks he would hit a pothole and damage a rim causing a blowout and ruining a tire.
