20" spinners and Window Tint

Hey, I have a 2001 e320, thinking about getting some 20" spinners. Anyone else have spinners on their benz? If so, what are the disadvantages of them? Also, I want to tint all windows, what tint brand do you guys have, and what is the best?

Thanks, Peace.

Putting 20" wheels on a W210 is going to be costly, you'll have to have the right suspension and you also have to roll out your fenders. Some people on the board have spinners on their Benz, but not an E-Class. The only disadvantage to having spinners is that its costly and the whole craze will soon diminesh. I say just get some 20" rims, and it will look pimp. Tint, tint, tint, not sure what brand my shop used for my tint, but just make sure you know what type of tint is being used. What I did was I looked at the customer cars that got tint done, so I'd have an idea of how its going to look. BTW, are you Indian?

I have 20s on mine but I dont have spinners. I like spinners (actualy I just bought some for my navi)but I chose not to put them on the mb. The process of putting 20s on a w210 is hard enough without spinners I can just imagine what aditional issues will come up with them. If you have your mind set on it go for it but make sure you do your homework first.
