Wow. How did they fit 255/30-21 upfront? This suggests that 255/35-20 would fit too, but I know that even 245/35-20 does not. That front pearch had to be modified. But even with that, how does the car turn? Front tires have to hit front fender liners with every turn of the steering wheel.

way over-the-top for my taste. In fact, it's quickly approaching the "ghetto" car category.

Pretty cool, looks a beast. But it looks like a car that Jay-Z would drive (No offence)
Not sure on the rims though.

You did not read what I wrote or you wouldn't write what you did, unless you do not know the difference (which is 1" diameter).

Great look if one likes it.. Not a fan of the lower front grill. Seems to me it looks more like a lamborghini lower grill rather then the classic MB. For me the MB should be classic and not updated to make it something its not. Just my opinion...

That thing is riding on rims and no tires. I highly doubt it would last more than a month on those tires. Highly impractical in So Cal! But, nevertheless cool to look at.
