Looks nice and clean!

22" is perfect size for the S-class, not to big and not to small. Nice fitment.

I'm thinkin' that looks great, but it must be a tough ride! Wouldn't you just feel every little bump? That has to take away from what the S class is all about.
Perhaps in a 911 you accept the bumps. Anyone else have experience going above 19" wheels??

Hey Carsnob,

I have driven many of the Mercedes Benz we have done with our 20' or 22' wheels. I cant complain about any major or even slight bumps and vibrations. Its not stock but the drive still feels like a Mercedes Benz.

The bumps, potholes, and uneven roads I can complain about are on the some of the roads in Miami.

Even if you do hit a bump. I will tell you that our wheels are a lot stronger then 3-piece forged wheels.

If you have any other questions, don't hesitate to shoot me over a email.

Thanks!

Are you able to customize the lip depth? It seems that every aftermarket wheel that I find has very deep insets at the lip area. Bottom line: Can I get any of your rims in a size 19" or 20" wheel with say, 8.5" in front and 9.5" rear with 1/2" depth on front and 1 1/2" depth on rear wheels?
Can you give us a price list?

While I like the design of the wheels, I think 20s would be more appropriate.

This big wheel craze is getting a bit ridiculous.

2 years ago, 22s were considered a good size for full size SUVs.

Totally agree.
These Vossens are truly beautiful wheels and compliment the lines of S-Class perfectly but size 20' would give a more balanced look and would not affect negatively (as 22' do) the ride and handling characteristics of that car.

Our wheels do not come with 1/2" lip in the front and 1 1/2" in the rear.

The MSRP for 20x8.5 in the front and 20x10.5 in the rear is $2,296 for the set.

If anyone needs a dealer. I can help locate one for you.
