Thanks guys! I purchased from OEM wheels plus for $849.00 with shipping. I didn't lower it. JP, yes I had issues because my first size for the front was 245/35/20 but they realized they rubbed the struts and they changed them to 225/35/20.

Very nice! Also do you have a 4matic and how is the clearance with the 225 tire because i think im going to have to buy 2 tires 225/35/20 cause im runing 245 all around had to hammer the strut cap to make them fit they clear but i hit a huge dip the other day and felt a little rub.So prolly going to get the 225 if they clear alot to be safe

Man I love the color combo and the contrast! I almost bought a paladium, but drug my feet and it sold, now wish I would have waited till I found it. Oh well, I only have a 2 year lease so maybe I will do it again in whatever metallic gray is available at that time. I like my white, but the gray is really sharp with those wheels and I prefer a metallic paint. OEM Wheels Plus did not have these in 20's when I was looking, but I would have been a little concerned about the lower offset and my already lowered car. Looks great, enjoy!

I love the white and that was my other option. I really appreciate your help on these. The offset on the rear is a little to agressive for me. The wheels stick out more than I want them to. Any who, pulled up to the dealership yesterday and they questioned where I purchased the wheels and they were shocked on the price. They also offered to lower 1/2 inch. I'm still thinking on that.
