i was actually looking at custom making monoblock vi's when i was looking for rims but after doing a ps job like your's, i didn't like it.
I would say on a silver paint job, black on chorme/polished lips rims don't look right.

so top car is my car as it looks today (well I've since added the euro bumper strips)....while there is no question I will stick with my wheels as they are (silver) I wonder if from a different angle the black would look better...from a different angle you would pick up the black in the sport grill along with the black pano roof....when I have a minute I'll do this again with another pic that highlights those other two elements (along with the black wheels)

The black wheels look OK....my Porche 944 had black wheels on it and they looked pretty cool......but on a MB, stick with the silver/chrome wheels. The silver wheels look great with the silver body.

I like the silver ones personally. What size of rims are those, and what size of tire?
Will a rim that is 18x8.5 with an ET of 35 fit a 03 E320? What would be the best tire size. Car won't be lowered, and I don't want any rubbing. Any suggestions?
