Thanks again. Looks good. Can't decide on rim size. Don't want to lower the car. Was going to do a front lip if i do 20's to keep the front low. Are those from usarim?

No, they are from ebay....and I am the same way, because i cant see dropping a Mercedes. 20" fill up the wheel well and you dont have to drop the vehicle.

vredastein tires 245.40.20 F / 285.35.20 R

its not lowered, i was recommended against lowering due the the 285 rear tires they may rub, or cause other unforeseen damage. hence the NY/NJ metro area the roads provide enough of that already

be well

Above sizes (almost 27.8" diameter) are physically IMPOSSIBLE on W212 (245/35-20 F & 285/30-20 R are the absolute maximum with some modifications required on pre-facelift E350s).
