I wish tez... but if i change to 20 i won't buy the multipiece just the single piece. I really love multipiece wheel rather than single piece. so i don't think i change it, it just too much money involve. I rather spent it on somewhere else.

What is ECU?

What is the size of the wheels and tires?

How much is the price difference between the one-piece and two-piece?

are you planning on a body kit? because i think there are nice 20" rims out there that are not as expensive as the brabus but still look hot..like auto couture magnifique. but if i had to chose go with the 20's.

I bought the wheels for a better foot print, the E55 needs all the rubber on the rear it can get. In 20's on the W211 E, you can only run a 255 which would cause major traction problems.
