New E Class owner here!

Whats up MB World. Ive been on here lurking for awhile and finally found the right car for me and picked up an 03' E320

I have had it for about a week now and have already new wheels on the car. The ones it came with were cheap looking and didn't fit the prestige of this car in my opinion.

The previous owner has been a long time friend so I know the history of the car and its maintenance minus the rear brakes is completely up to date. He also changed the tail lights out for the new style lights which I think gives the car a nice updated look in the rear

Here is a couple pictures of the car. let me know what you think. I want to revamp the front of the car to give it an updated look as well. Any suggestions?

How it currently looks with the new Breden Wheels


How it looked when I got it with the old wheels


How it looked stock when it was first bought by my friend who I bought it from

Hello. PS: The new wheels look nice. They're larger, so new tires too?

Yeah. Still have the old tires and rims. Old wheels were not staggered and had 245/35 tires all around. I liked the way they filled up the wheel wells better.

New tires are 245/30 and 285/30. They are so thin I am paranoid that I'm going to bend a rim or pop a tire on a pot hole. They were too much money to just swap them out now when they are brand new. When they get old and worn down I will switch them to a 35 series tire

Its already looking that way! Bought a few things for it. New style head lights to match the tail lights and clear side markers for the front bumper.
