Yea they are 20s. The grill was removed and painted. The car was purchased from Brabus in Newport. All mods where done by Brabus.

The bumper mesh would look much better in black, but the car looks sweet.

Thats something new since brabus doesnt do what they are not allowed to do and that is to put 20's on the front of an e-class. Normally they can do a 20x9.5 in the rear and run a 255/30, while doing 19x8.5 in the front since there is no 20" tire size that fits the front of an E utilizing standard tire diameter specs. you can check it here http://www.brabus-online.de/prog14e.htm

Plus you seem to be missing the side skirt and normally all brabus cars done by brabus and sold as a complete brabus car will have the brabus side skirt.

Not trying to be difficult here im just curious.

Edit: well actually there is a new tire from pirelli that probably would fit properly 245/30-20 so maybe its that tire?

BrabusBenzo,

Is there anyway that you could repost your pictures as I'm only being able to see red x's. Thanks
