I'm a fan of the AMG's and that's about it. The S600 rims are slowly growing on me but that looks like it belongs in a music video.

hmmm.....kind of hard to tell from the pix.

i can't tell if it looks sick....or does it look like one of those cars people put too big of a wheel on and made it look like a 4x4.

if you get a chance....how about some pics of it in the daylight.

the big question is....how's the ride quality now that it's on 22s?

only way to go is with 22's and lowered...its the perfect proportion for the huge wheel wells and overall look of the car... in the past i was into chrome, then black on black... this time around i went with the brushed nickel with chrome lip look... here's a link to some pics of my cl , which has the same well size and offset.

I will never understand... when it comes to rims...

1. why people don't spend money on rims that is proportionate to their cars.

2. why people don't think about how the over design of their car will be affected by rims. If a car is angled, you might want to think about more wheels that are angled.

When it comes to wheels, don't price shop... shop for your perfect design for your particular car. What may look good on your buddies E350 doesn't mean it will look good on you 5 series.
