Talking Which rims do you guys think will look best.

Trying to decide which rims to go with for my E-320 2000 desert silver. I think I'm going to go for 19's or at the least 18's What do you guys think?
I think I like 3 best then 1.
(1)?
(2)?
(3)?

be careful...... u can get caught in the look of the rim by looking at the bigger sizes and mistaking it for the size that u've chosen.

also, some wheels look good on the stand...only....

personally, i'd go with 2 then 1 and lastly 3.

oh and does anyone know what size tyres to put on to a 20" 8.5j fronts and 9.5j rears so that they dont rub...inside or out..

my opinion...320 is not a big car,so u might want to go with thinner spokes. #1 is nice, but it might look like its wearing lead boots. did u try to paste or go to american tires to see how it looks? my coices are #1, 3 , 2 . but it all depends how it looks on the car, my .002. good luck on your choice

E320 2000
i have the same car but in brilliant silver
i would choose #2
but if you could cut and paste onto your car the choices might be easier
tough to really get the feel of how rims look on car without seeing wheels on car lol.
Good luck
you really cant make a bad choice hot rims all the way round

None of your choices personally agree w/me. I more or less like the sporty look.
If you have narrowed it down to those I would say run with #3.

Not thinking your trying to "Bust my bumble" Just would like to get a general idea of what to put on my ride....and others opinion as well; I do like your set up though! Its neat not as flashy as the all chrome rims.. you like the conservative look . I had the Nitto's tires on my Acura Legend...Very good hp tires!

Accroding to that website, your #3 wheel (named "MODULARE M2") only comes in 20" and 22". So, it's eliminated.

i'd go for something less bling, also consider road conditions in your area before selecting what size wheels to go with
but ultimately whatever YOU like most on the car is what counts
