I like the grill but I am not a big fan of the wheels on the car. It might be the PS job but it's just not my bag.

Looks like those our OEM 18" E63 wheels. I have a 19" E63 style wheels and I lke them a lot.

Here's a picture of itt before I upgraded my AMG brakes & bodykit:

Try either CLS wheels, 18" staggered sportier look, quite inexpensive, $1000 for the set.

Or get forged wheels, like HRE, nice and lightwieght, see 2nd pic, +$4000 for the set.

I checked with HRE and was delighted to learn about 18" wheel weights 22lb-23lb; exactly what I am looking for. A wee bit expensive at $1695/wheel but worth considering though NJ roads are not forgiving. Together with suitable 245x18 Michelin tires helps stay within OEM wheel/tire weight of 48lbs.

Problem is that an E350 with the E63 wheels, looks like ans E350 with E63 wheels on it.

A bit try hard for my liking.
