Another w221 (600 this time) with ZONE 4 21" chrome wheels

Just got these from ZONE and wanted to share. I personally like the "thicker" tire afforded by the 21"

21x9 / 21x10.5 full chrome
255/30 and 285/30-21

niccce, but i feel for a car as elegant as a s600 you should keep rims stock because thats what Mercedes thinks looks best on them after a lot of research, plus it doesnt look professional, looks hoodlumish

Bingo. But hey, it is a free country. If that is what turns the owner of a 150k car on then rock on.

STOCK RIMS? BLECHHH!

WHO THE F##K WANTS TO LOOK PROFESSIONAL AND LIKE EVERY OTHER ***HOLE THAT HAS A FEW BUCK AND ZERO SENSE OF STYLE, WANTING TO PLAY SAFE AND LOOK LIKE EVERY OTHER SHNOOK WHO THINKS HE'S SOMEONE SPECIAL JUST BECAUSE HE HAS A BENZ. WAKE UP, YOU AIN'T SPECIAL UNLESS YOU PUT A LITTLE EFFORT INTO SEPARATING YOURSELF FROM THE OTHER BRICKS IN THE WALL!

The more hoodlumish, the better, so how ' bout professional hoodlum!

This is tasteful, subtle, but tasteful.

So, keep the stock rims for when you want to off the car to the masses who are afraid of being individuals...

GREAT LOWERING JOB, BTW; it's just right. Curious to know who did it.

do not listen to the poster above - those wheels look AMAZING!!!!!

the stock wheels look like trash for the S 600.

You need the AMG wheels if you're staying w/ MB wheels (circa nevada jack).

Absolutely beautiful and classy. I just have two questions:

First, how does one lower a car that has ABC? Reprogram or simply replace the suspension components?

Second, does the change to very low profile tires cause the ride to be harsh? Indeed, there's less air space between the road and the rim to soak up some of the bumps, and the shocks can only do so much.

Just wondering.

Again, very tasteful and elegant mods.

Love the chrome ones. They go well with the Pewter and the exhuast on the S600.

The fit and fiinish looks great. Very aggressive stance. But, I can't stand chrome anything. Are you getting any tramlining at all with the very large wheel/tire combo?

Sorry for the slow reply guys but the car is using the KLEEMANN lowering module and the pics are from ZONE so I cant report on the driving characteristics. Because of the tire sizes it should not be as darty as a 30series 22"

I'd like to see one of these cars with a set of 3-piece deep lip wheels. The ZONE wheels just don't do it for me the same as Iforged, AVUS, etc. Better than the stock wheels, though.

...I absolutely agree--w/ the elegance part...However, it's not the bling(I like the wheels!)--but rather how low it is--makes it look too much like a pimp car w/ hydraulic lifts.
Other than that, a very nice car!

Cheers!
