Photos of my silver E320

Hey guys I just wanted to share some photos of my car with the multispoke SL55 AMG wheels. A couple people wanted to see photos of the actual wheel on a W211. I finally took to the time to go take a few shots before the rain comes again

The car is really dirty from the rains last week and the wheels have a good amount of brake dust on them, but you can get a general idea as to how they look.

Any comments would be appreciated

Oh and I forgot to bring my tripod so I had to shoot in ISO1600 so thats why the shots are so grainy.

They seem to be working for me.

Any recommendations on photos hosting other than my flickr account?

OOOOH!

I like that. What size tires are you running? And did you need to run spacers or was it a perfect fit?

JRAMGV8 - I'm just using a Canon Rebel XTi with the standard kit lens. I bought to use when I travel, I like it a lot. It's been with me through France, Italy, Spain, Japan, Mexico and going strong with around 13,000 shots taken on it!

Benz-O-Rama - I'm running 245/40/18 in the front and 275/35/18 in the rear. I believe the front offset is +30 and the rear is +31. There was no need for me to use spacers with these wheels .

brabus2ner - Actually after I get my 19's this weekend I might have to consider an alternative for my suspension. Currently I have a 1 finger gap all around on my H&R springs. I'll have to wait and see how the car sits after that.

b_rashed - Thanks! I really like the AMG kit on your car. When you get the chance can you send me some pictures of the side skirts around the door jamb? I really just want to know if they install like the factory side skirts.

Thanks for the comments.

+1 on the drop.

I've been thinking about this setup for my car for a couple of months now. It's just cleaning those ***** has to be a pain in the ****.

sunkist,

are those SL wheels staggered? Are they OEM or replicas? I am trying to find the similar 16 spoke AMG CLK 63 Black wheel style for my E350.

Those are the original SL55 amg wheels that I got when they were available at tirerack.com. The size of these wheels are 18x8.5 +30 offset and 18x9.5 +33 offset.

If you look around the classifieds some SL55 owners are selling thiers for 750-1000 without tires.
