Nice D! I've always liked mesh wheels. Nice to see iforged was able to get a 4.5" lip on rear wheels.

Because iFORGED doesnt allow pricing to posted publically. The only time the rule is waived is for Group Buys when there are 15-20 sets of wheels being purchased at one time.

If you need a price quote, just let me know, I'd be glad to PM / email / etc

Hey Julio you don't see many w221's with aftermarket 20's because the modular construction with the lip really makes the wheel look small!

Here is a 221 with 21" ZONE Wheels

The 21" looks much better proportioned to me. Too bad Iforged doesnt make 21" wheels

Ride Quality

D2...what happens to the ride of the S Class with 21" and 22" tires with the low profile 25 tires. The car appears to be riding on the rims almost? It would definitely have to make the ride feel like a "trolley car" especially in S mode.

I know there are many who put these on their cars, but few comment on how the ride changes.

Yeah, the 21" offerings are very slim, however with time there are more and more being introduced (BRABUS, MAYA, LOWENHART, etc)

The forged wheels are slower to come though, probably because of the high cost of stocking parts (inner barrels, outer barrels, center disks, etc). I hope more forged wheel manufacturers jump on board with ZONE and BRABUS.

I have 22" wheels on my personal vehicle (30 and 25series tires) and the ride is not severly degraded at all. When it comes to modding, the most severe change to the ride is the suspension. The suspension systems on ulta-lux cars like the 550 are very compliant to start with so wheels alone will not take it from a level 10 to a level 1 on the comfort scale. Maybe a level 9 or 8.

I have KW coilovers and 22" wheels and my ride still is nowhere near "trolley cart" territory! lol

What size tires do you use with the 21's?? Also are 21' tires readily available or hard to find??? Also how much has this vehicle been lowered?

The tires are not a issue at all they are readily availible. We will not be back in the office until Tuesday, but give me a email or call and I'll get you a quote on the wheels.
