As long as you're satisfied, that's all that matters.

Nice ride, Congrat! I really really like the new E class, especially in white

The wheels look like the belong on a 1980's lime green cadillac.

rims are 20" VIP Modular VR10 custom ordered for perfect offset. Front rims are 9" width -2" lip and Rears are 10.5" width -3.5" lip. Ride was lowered with H&R springs.

Ride is surprisingly good. Lowering at first was a little stiff but got better over time. When lowering any ride, you'll lose 30% of the comfort. As for the offset, I have no idea. My car was brought in for measuring and they asked if I wanted it to be aggressive like most VIP styled vehicles and I replied hell no. I asked for a perfect fit with no rubbing regardless of how I drive or decide to lower my car.

Sex on wheels. Wise choice on the 350...no air suspension!
