I have two questions:

1. Was the car Zaino'ed
2. What camera did you use to take these images?

ViKTORiOUS

Looks sick, where can I get these wheels?

MB Dreamz

Car was professionally detailed at a shop that only works on high dollar cars. Mine was the only one there under $100K, lol. I had some bad stains in the interior that I've been fighting to get out after some stupid mechanic jumped in it without cleaning himself up first. The guys spent 6 1/2 hours on it today. Cost = $200 The camera I used is a very affordable Sony Cyber-shot DSC-P41 4.1 Mega Pixel.

MB Dreamz

I got them off ebay, brand new with tires for $1699.00! If interested, PM me, and I'll give you the number to the shop I got them from.

Thanks, the images look great.

My problem is that it has been difficult to find great (subjective, I know) rims in
17" which is the largest I want at the moment. I wanted dress rims for my 99
e320 and not sporty since my ride isn't really a high output, AMG type performer.
But these Ruff rims sure look nice and I like the lip. the spokes are sturdy and
does not appear 'spindly' and narrow. Whaddaya think guys? I have the
Bordeaux exterior so thinking silver finish. Nice that this 279 model comes in
17, 18, and 19. :-)

Oh, MB Dreams...... on your car !! great overall package and look!

I have this similar problem, I wanted wheels no larger than 17" and with a wide width, looked pretty much everywhere and can not find one I was looking for. I ones I happens to like are all 18" or 19" in terms of width size, so I ended up going with HRE and I will have to pay a big price for this kind of "customization". :v

Very nice....What amount of drop do you estimate?

raymond g-

Yes, HREs were on my short list also but until that $1 lotto ticket pays off, there is no way I can justify the cost. Glad to hear it ended well for you. Which set did you end up getting....and, where the heck are your photos? :-D

MB Dreamz

1 1/2" all the way around.

Brav

ahhhh get rid of that front plate!

If you get painted or euro side markers and flat hood badge, your car would look awesome. Nice wheels - I take it they are 1 pc cast not forged

Dvinn

I decided on 544 17x8.5 and 17x10.5, I am still in the ordering process...delivery time 4 around weeks~

Dvinn

Very nice and clean! Does the detail package include engine bay as well?

MB Dreamz

Yes, it included everything, bumper to bumper.

vraa

I really like your wheels!

baldmike73

who was the seller on ebay and what kind of rubber and sizes did it come with.

Looks good.

phattbam

yes what size tires did you get? what brand tires? any fitment issues at all? do the W211 have a big brake that the wheels need to clear? how's the lip on those?? sorry for having so many questions just came upon them on ebay and thought it's a great deal..

This wheel/tire package should fit all non-AMGs. The tire sizes he has listed will fit the C-class without rubbing or clearance issues. For the W211, he recommended upgrading the tires to a 245/35/19 & 275/30/19. I've had absolutely no rubbing or clearance issues even after lowering it. Last weekend, I took the family out, and had 5 people in the car. I stepped outside, and saw the rear tucked like you wouldn't believe. Then the airmatic system raised itself automatically to the preset level. When we arrived at the restaurant, and everyone got out, the car looked like a 4X4, lol. Then it slammed itself back down. For a second there, I thought I was one of those "lowriders" with hydraulics or airbags.
