I'm sure we can find some country bamas in the south willing to do this with no shame, but so far you are in a class all by yourself.

The CLS is perfect with 20's and the car is even more attractive when it’s lowered via star diag, brabus module, kleeman, etc... I have an 04 RR with 22's and it looks great but I'd never imagine putting them on a car.

Not to totally dismiss 22's on a car, because I have a friendwith 22's on a 745Li and it is lower with H&R's and it looks good, but that car is larger than he CLS

Totally agree, the 7 series bimmers, 300c's/Magnums look great with 22's due to the low riding spoiler/ground effects and large rounded wide wheel wells.. The CLS is at it's best wow factor slammed on 20's. Barolo CLS is a beautiful car minus the chuckwagon setup.

C63 AMG (stock right now), Beach Cruiser (debadged), Piper Cherokee 280 (too much to mention)
chrome

those chrome tail light surrounds are making me

wheels are good, although the car needs to be fitted with bodykit. It looks like a CLS-SUV. Maybe some low profile tires would do the trick?

Man, can you feel the love...? The guy posts a few pics of his 22's and people start picking on everything they don't like... And by the way, I don't like the valve stem caps so you better change those or your car 'aint sh*t...!

I think the wheels are a little large and wonder how long it'll be before he takes a chunk out of one... Not much rubber there...
