I debated getting a set myself. They look very good!

Make sure you remove that decal off the side of the driver's window. In my mind nothing says used car more that one of those stickers on the side of a driver's window!

How does the car ride with the 19's ? What brand of rubber ? I called Stefen at D2 today about these wheels in a 19 staggered fit along with a set of tires. They told me the fit would be 245/40/19 - Front and 275/35/19 rear. I notice you went a diffrent size, now I'm confused on the tire sizing.

Clayton, what size tires did you put on your MRR's ?

diameter of your rim..

Tires sizes could be different you didn't get bad information it all depends on the rim.. what is the diameter of the wheel.. 8 or 8.5 or 9.5 that makes the difference on how high of a tire you could get..

reason I went 275/30 in the back.. is that I have about 1 inch clearence in the back of my wheel...

Do you have the E320 2003 or do you have E55....

that was my first point of reference..

also the offset is important..

Ride...

It rides heavier.. I can feel the difference.. it's true what they say.. that the road you hear more of it.. but it's not that bad at all.. it corners alot better.. I was driving about 100mph from San Diego to Los Angeles.. it feel good.. one thing I did notice my take off is not as fast due to the fact of the heavier rim.. But you have more control off the car..

I would recommend upgrade to 19's.. I have the chrome wheels not sure how the polish silver feel like..

Yes, 2004 E320 no airmatic and can't find anyone to frigging lower my car soooo.. I was going with the Mandrus in Hyper Silver 19 x 8.5 and 19 x 9.5 with 245/40 and 275/35's. I have this gut feeling I am going to drive myself bonkers once I get them installed due to the fender gap.

At that point I may just get the Bondo out..
