Jimmy, where've you been?
You'd mentioned you're also looking for some deep dishes - look no further than your fav - Carlsson's! These'll look even better with your Carlsson kit and they're only 18".
Does anyone think this combo i.e. AMG kit/Carlsson wheels would look as good on a white one?
Benz: Checkout those fog lamps - they're blackened (I think....)

i don't know about the rims, i really like the 2/6 carlsson wheels and also you should paint your door handles or get newer ones, makes a big difference, at least to me

'04 Silverado Z71 - sold all my Benzes and need another!
Hey, sorry I never responded to your thread. I just came across it right now as I was looking threw this forum. Well, you obviously know where I am by now. Can't wait to get home though.
Thanks for the pics. I would actaully like to get my hands on a pair of 1/6 Evos like I have only 10" deeps for the rear. Just to save some cash of buying all 4. Not in a hurry though...

As you know I've always loved the HRE's, IForged or Turbo's..............hopefully I'll find some Brbaus III's as a substitute. Does anyone know if those were discontinued - the sole distributor here don't have them

Yah Brabus III is discontinued. You can try to find used ones but 19" MULTI-PC used are almost impossible to find. You might be able to find 20" Multi-PC off some of W140 & W220 S Class, but you will face another problem ->> offset. 20" MultiPC only has 9.5. You should be able to fit them in the rear but it is impossible to fit 20x9.5 in front axle unless you do major fender work. Even the new E W211 has problem with 20X9.5 unless you don't plan to do any lowering. Auto Contoure man!!!

I think they blend with the W210 E's design very perfectly. I seem to be able to find something to criticize about the looks of the nicest wheels on an E e.g. Brabus V's (don't misunderstand, I think they're hot on other Benz's but just not exactly right pn a W210, somehow).Hey Jimmy, don't you mean s-L-ick not sick?????

No, "SICK" means tight or phat in Cali. They even go as far as calling things "Hospitalized" if it's beyond total tightness, lol. But that's taking it too far...:p
