Actually, IMO the W211 has more aesthetic potential than that. Nice new 1/16's look quite sharp and somewhat classy on it but there's other wheels can really change the character of the car e.g. Brabus VI (althought too common and no lip) etc. Here MBZ12, some slammed examples for just for ya

Thanks Whitey, I like the 1/16's but again, I think they're a bit pricey. 1/6's in 20's would be tight. I'm going to see her in about an hour, I'm going to show her these pics. Thanks again for lookin' out...:Y

No lip man! Anyways, won't they fit? What about using an S-class AMG Mono II - I think they're also 114mm, aren't they? (Jimmy don't worry, I'm not suggesting that she should go down this path - this is just academic )

No worries Dave, lots of great pics, thanks. I like the Lorinser 5 stars above, they look like oggle's wheels. This is pretty academic, I'm finding this very educational. Btw, she doesn't like the 1/16's and still likes the Brabus VI (Movens). I am now going to show her those Lorinsers, she's getting confused, hehehe...

personnally, i think the movens/brabus vi are great value/looks for money for the w211 - won't be a bad choice at all. i don't think she'll like the lorinsers over the movens......but then there's the never ending debate over replicas vs originals.........

Yeah, I know what you mean, I just want her to be a little different. I love the Movens as well and they are really tight wheels but everyone has them. Oh well, her 211 will still look tight...Now I hope she hurries up because I can't wait to pimp her car around town, hehehe...

Damn guys....you guys are posting some wicked pics! Whitey, that grey 211's front end is bad ***!!! I especially like the grille with the MB star angled very nicely! I know a lot of you don't like the star in grille look on our E's but that 211 is bad!

How about with another set of wheels RS5's:
I personally don't mind the big star grill per se - it really depends on the body. On the W211 its nice but JIMO not so great on the W210. Ummmm, BTW the only grey car I've ever seen is an Audi TT......

Hahahaha, lol...you're too funny. Anyway, do you believe she doesn't like them now 
? She wants to stick to those dang Movens, oh well, it's her cash. At least (like I said before) I'll be able to sport her car once in a while. Now I have to get her to go with the Brabus bodykit with the 4 foglights! Hopefully I can talk her dad into getting it for her for Christmas or her B-day or something. Not holding my breath though, lol...
