Opinion/inquiry on wheels

Car is an 03 E500. How do you think these would look? Also, anyone have any experience with this webdealer or this product?

Wheels are personal. Everyone has individual opinions. For example, these are not a style I would like but it should not stop you from getting them if you like them. I do think, however, an MB deserves a better class of wheels. I do understand funds are always an issue so ...

With these wheels, the only specs are 18x8. Staggered would look better. They don't even state offset so you don't know how it would fit.

In any case, good luck.

Especially when you see an ad for replicas with the compare at $$$$$$ claim. That is a dead giveaway IMHO.
