IMO they are more ghetto than classy. I hope anyone considering these rims has mirror smooth roads because a 4000lb car on 20" cheap cast wheels is a perfect recipe for bent wheels.

I actually think lowrider bikes are pretty cool in a ghetto-fab way.

Nice, looks like Privat Reserve



Is chrome your finish of choice or is it black with a chrome lip?

The gentleman didn't ask for opinions on his choice of wheels, so I won't share, but looking at eurotechwheels.com's wares got me wondering. How does Eurotechwheels get away with using the Benz, BMW and Audi logos on their wheels, even the really ugly ones that couldn't possibly be OEM or licensed goods? Is it just that they haven't yet gotten (or have ignored) their cease-and-desist letter from the lawyers?

I have one question:

Wouldn't 20's on an 03 E320 be running on really thin tires?

another option

I have some 18" staggered Foose rims for an E 500 I am selling. I had them on a 03 E 500 Sport. Very nice rims. I traded the car in and kept the rims.

18 x 8.5 and 18 x 9.5 offset 30 and 36

$650 or best offer. Tires are worn.

If you go with 20" there is a bolt in the front end you have to cut to give enough clearance. I first looked at 20' but between cutting the bolt and ride quality I went with the 18's. Still a nice ride.

thank you everyone..

I didn't think about weight of car.. bent rims.. I'm not sure if crown or alloy would be best fit for what I'm looking for...

I think I will look at 19's.. instead.. see what happens..

I got 20inchers on my 07 wrapped in 245/35/20 and 275/30/20. They only rub in the front while reversing out of parking spots. It's barely noticeable. I bent one already though, actually this morning.

Relax....
Center peices are not physically a part of any particular wheel. So, Unless they are claiming that the wheels are Actually Made by a certain car company, there is no violation. Also, most center peices that are sold with the logo's are licensed from the car company's . they can be applied to any wheel they will fit without limitations.

Fact is, most people would prefer center caps that display the make of their vehicle where applicable, over the wheel manufacturers logo in most cases.

I personally won't buy and aftermarket wheel unless they come with MBZ center caps or I found some that fit.
