What do you guys think?
I had the wheels on my white C350 and I have been debated whether or not to put them on my 4matic E350. They are 19 inch staggerred Vellano wheels and my wife thinks they will look good but I am undecided and I wanted some other people's opinion. I think my wife wants me to put them on because they cost so much. What do you guys think? I know the pictures are not that great but I was trying to see how they would look without putting them on first.

I think the looks would be fine but make sure your tire diameters are within spec since you have the 4-Matic.

I'm not a fan of that look. I would also not want 19 inch rims on my every day ride due to harder ride and significant increase in blowout risk. But that is just me. Rim size has gone to stupid extremes. Regards. Ned.

Vellano's are great rims but I don't think that is the right size or style for the 212. I personally would stick to the stock rims instead of those. 
I'm sure they would look great on a c350.

More likely, those who "complemented" those wheels have no taste or forgot their correctional lenses. The rims look cheap and nasty, and force the car to look about a decade dated.

It was just a friendly dig!! I long ago stopped being too dogmatic when it comes to personal taste issues. I would look down on people for liking Madonna as opposed to say Crowded House. But what ever makes you happy. And Madonna outsold Crowded House 10 to 1. So what do I know? Regards. Ned.

The band was started by the Finn brothers, Neil and Tim. They came from a band called Split Enz. Neil is the mainstay of the band and the primary singer song writer, still out there writing and touring. They hail from New Zealand. "Don't Dream It's Over" was their biggest hit. Regards. Ned.

They are like the Jersey Shore of rims. They would not do the E justice, nothing personal - they remind of the whole ED HARDY thing - trying to hard to be something the E is not.
