22's look good on the rear. but i really think you need thinner tires. 21" rims require 20 series on the rear. so for a set of 22's, you should stretch a 20 series tire so your ride height would be close to your stock height as possible.

Its cool if you like it but imo, its a little too flashy. Maybe if you got the rims in 20" in brushed aluminum and took of the spoiler, you would be set to go. Nice though.

I love those wheels on the R-class, seen the manufacturer's ad with them. The chrome and size don't do it for me on that car though, if the were 20's and brushed or silver than it would look very classy (IMO). enjoy them.

Nice wheels, just to BIG!

Here you go jta00r1, i took this picture at SEMA this R class looked pretty wild. Barolo CLS, if you are stuck on the 22" you should have bought a S- class.

I went to sema too, I can't believe I missed that. I guess I was to busy looking at the LP640 knockoff rims on the lambo they had in their booth.lol

there are no tire companies that make a 20 series tire...25 is the lowest series...
