They do like nice...match color of car...I prefer a lip on wheels but some still look good without a lip. Nice choice..... now you have to it!

Agree you could lower the car a little. I lowered mine about 1.5" with Eibach springs and it looks like a sleek shark. Amazing how much lowering changes your perception of the lines of a car.

I had the almost the same wheels except mine were the evolution edition in 19X8.5-19X10 with the polished lips both front and rear. They look good but I agree will look a lot better with a drop. Lower that 4X4!

From what I read it's the most aggressive spring you can buy but a lot of the guys love it in here. You can adjust your ride height and bit of the comfort but using #2 or #3 spring pads. Don't forget to change your shocks or the ride will even be worse. Post some pics when you're done...

Yes, the rims are old style and so is the car and they compliment the car perfectly. The Carlsson 1/6 and the W210 were designed and built at the same time. Classic car with classic wheels. They are from the same era and a classy design and not over done are too flashy. I used to have the same in 17" on my 98 E430.

Now you just need to drop it and get matching moldings. The car looks better with the wheels
