Perhaps ill stick with 19X8.5 allover front and back. Thanks for ure input mafia.

The purpose of this forum is to assist and inform others when they are in doubt. I own a W140 and I have 20"'s on it, so I can speak with experience on this subject matter. Besides, I knew that most rim shops wouldn't tell you any of the facts I told you. They'd just sell you rims and tires and laugh their *** off when you keep comming back to buy more stuff from them. It's a dirty business.

Unfortunately the car has been neglected keeping the driveway nice and shaded. Here are some older pics. THe Rims you see are gone some one in San Fran had to have them more than me. so I'm currently in the market for new ones , and will be posting some pics once I find and install the new shoes. Still gathering parts for the twin turbo. Maybe towards the end of summer I.ll start the project. http://www.cardomain.com/ride/758569
