good list, here are some changes id make...

20x9.5 rims (better ride and less risk of a wheel banging into a fender flare, ask Chris about that )
Normal MB OEM Bi-xenon (8000k looks like fake xenons, way too blue and too little light.... highest id go is 6000k)

The 22's are for shows, Im trying to compete with Stefan here, though he'll kick my *** in every category, ill give it a valient effort! Of course ill be using my stock 17's as daily runners.

As for the HID's, my good friend from Long Island has 8000k's on his maxima, and they look sick, they arent blue, but they are greenish/bluish... I am also getting matching fogs to go with the headlights...

Looking good

Stefan has the Lorinser package on his ML - have you looked at that? It's decent, if not a bit on the over-aggressive side

Translation:

They are pure rice and put out less light than 6000k HIDs.

So you don't care, yet you responded.

Interesting contradiction.
