FINALLY - 21's on mommy's machine

So I finally pulled the trigger with the help of Ben at Wheel Boutique and HRE together. I have been a long tome customer of both.

Installed today at the WB, thanks again Ben for everything !!!

HRE 943R / Brushed Center with Chrome Lips
21x9 & 21x10.5

255/30 & 285/30
P-zero nero

so . . . . what do you guys think ???

I did a lot of research regarding size prior to getting the 21's. If it was my daily driver, I might have gotten the 22's (maybe)

looks great! i really like that model of HREs. 22s might be a little harsh as a DD. thee 21's fill the wheel well nicely. it doesn't look like you lowered the car, but i think you can get away without doing so.

nice choice.

Definitely looks good, but you should think about lowering it a little.

Very nice! Those HRE's look really classy AND sporty. Can't say that about too many others.

One thing that jumps out at me is that the larger the wheel, the smaller the brake rotors look. But in your case it's not as conspicuous as in others that have a more open center where you can see the rotors more clearly.

Nice. Those wheels look great on the E. Never seen those on a 211.

funny,
I purchased the wheels back in 2004 for my 2003 E500 and then transferred them onto the 2008 E350.

So far I have had those wheels for almost 6 years. I did have one issue (must of hit a manhole because the inside of the rear wheel was bent and we did not see until I needed tires and the rim was off the car). The wheel was straightened and no issues ever since.

Ridiculous, amazing stable!

Your two Benzes are my favorite modern Sedans the company has ever made yet, and Ferrari is my ultimate "wet dream car", so you've the THE fleet to me.

I love the rims on the 211 BTW, remind me of the Lorinsers my friend used to have on his 220, pretty timeless rim.
