My first Benz

Daughter took over my 2003 BMW 530i so I went with a Mercedes this time, a 2005 E500 with 74,000 miles. Loving it so far. Here's some photos.

'07 E550
My First Benz and now I can't go back.

I've been trolling for a while but finally took a shot of my new toy.

'07 E550 48,000 on the odometer.

Wheels came with the car so not sure but I'm loving it.

I have the E55 bumper that came off of my car . It has the bumper, inner frames, absorbers,moldings etc. also has the carbon fiber chin spoiler on it. It's silver so you'd just have to paint and install it. PM me if interested . I'll let it go cheap.

2006 E350 4MATIC
First time owner

I felt it was finally time to move out of the world of plain, ordinary cars and into a luxury car. After searching around for awhile I decided that an E350 was the right fit. I had never even ridden in a Mercedes before, and now I own one.

I'm in the Colorado Springs area and would appreciate any recommendations on independent shops.

Plenty of wheels out there to choose from.

The real question is... "what's your budget?"

Even if you were to go with inexpensive wheels, you can make your car's stance real nice. Aggressive stance with spacers, meaty tires, stretched tires, concave wheels, wheels with a lip, color, etc.

I definitely want to make it like ok more aggressive, I've never heard the terms meaty or stretched tires though?

Meaty Tires = large sidewall aspect ratio
Stretched Tires = the tire fitment that's too narrow for the rim, causing the sidewall to be "stretched" inward rather than 90 degrees. An example would be running a 225 tire on an 8.5" rim.

Feel free to send me a PM any time and I'll help you find an aggressive set of wheels. Pass me some specs that you're interested in (color, size, style, etc.). But first... start with budget.

If you need ideas, you have both W211 (AMG & non-AMG) sections to browse around for ideas.

Well I'm waiting for my tires to wear out so I can get a bigger rim size, I'm thinking of going to 19s maybe.. As far as the color and what not, I've seen several black rims with a machined lip that I like but I'm not sure if they will look good on my car
