Pewter ML500 w/ chrome 22s

Not exactly my style, but my dealer had these 22" Anteras chromed and put on this otherwise nice 500. Huge wheel gap and suddenly puny-looking brakes ruin the look. The Pewter looks great, even in this bery bad lighting.

No argument about that! Bling to the excess.

I agree Greg...the wheels are really out of proportion to the rest of the car and the brake rotors look like toys.

BTW...I have Pewter on my E320 Sport and am very pleased with it. It does not show any dirt and always looks great, showing some nice highlights. If that Alpine Rain does not work out I will probably get the R Class in Pewter.
