They're 19s. I was going to go with 20s but the New England roads are full of potholes that would kill 20s after every winter and rims get damaged left and right.

Those 19's are perfect. The design really makes the car stand out. Nice classic and clean choice

Thanks for the feedback everyone!

If anyone likes these rims PM me, the place I got it from gave me a great price and the service was really good.

The ride quality is good. The diameter for the 19s I got with these tires is actually the same as the factory 18s with the factory tires. The only difference I've seen so far is when you hit a bump or pothole you'll feel it more.

Funny! No it's not a secret, I just don't want to post prices since vendors discourage that stuff. I got it from VIVA Performance (http://www.vivaperformance.com/) . They haven't done much for Mercedes but they're starting to sell aftermarket parts for Mercedes and BMW now. He was a local guy here in Boston.

Sorry OP for the hijack.

SoCalCLK, I am in the market for a set of rims and I like the monoblock vi very much do you mind to tell me what's your set up like offset , width and tire sizes etc?

Also, can you post some pics of your car or point to the right thread where it can be seen if already posted.

Thank you inadvance!
