New 22" wheels on my GL (first pic post)

OK, well it is acutally my girlfriend's GL, but I did pick out the Wheels. Maya 3 piece wheels. We have only had the car a few weeks, but we really love it.

GL's could have been dealt a better rear design by Mercedes, yet for a debutant, it is quite good. But pages, oh my God, what have you done! Those rims absolutely do not go well with that car... as was mentioned, terribly getto-like. Please reconsider, because it is way too awful looking my friend... you have messed it up real bad!

Other than that, hope you enjoy it in happiness & health.

Not bad. I would have stayed in the 20" range. But its ok. You need to get the PE running boards to accent wheels that size.

I think it looks great, it could use a little lowering but other than that they look great. I saw the other posts calling them ghetto and I was expecting chrome spinners but they aren't ghetto at all.

I think that size doesn't look all that bad, and the darker silver looks good with the black rig. Thanks for not getting 24's in chrome. THat would look too much like a music video vehicle. Lucky girl, I need to find myself a sugar mamma.

The wheels are a lil sporty for a truck, but not ghetto, wheels would just go better on a car.

Good luck with the the new truck and enjoy.

Nice wheels. Usually not a fan of aftermarket but they suit it well. Still prefer my X5's stock 20"s, however
