WOW!

Anthony....really sorry I missed this post.

I had them installed a little over a month ago and I really love the aggressive appearance. There are a few photos here...(scroll down to post #126).

They handle nicely, but the Nittos are very noisy compared to the PS2. No matter...I'll have to wear them out faster!

Ha ha... I am no better... 6 months later....

They look even better on you CLK55. Glad they went to someone who really wanted them. You car looks great!

I went ahead and got the 2006 E350... put 19's on it. They are BBS KNOCK OFFs.. I know.. I am cheap. But I wasn't shelling out the coin so my wife could brush a $1,000 front rim... AGAIN.

Has it been 6months yet? HAHAH...

I gotta hit this forum more often.

W211 is nice. I still think the w210 is more solid. It just felt more like a Benz. The W211 feels like a import...but not Mercedes... I am thinking of getting another car already...

Hey... I might be selling another set of wheels... My 19" Luff M1. They are what I call... BBS Knock OFFs... ahhah. Know anyone? They will fit W210 and W211. I have lugs for both. 5K miles on Nittos and wheels of course.
