Here's what it looks like installed:








My goodness! That looks gorgeous. As much as I like multipiece wheels this looks cleaner.....and you have exclusivity. Your ride is sweet.

I love the all brushed look! It looks classy instead of flashy. It'll look perfect against the color of the car as well. Looking forward to seeing them on there and the fender wells hugging them!

Shouldn't there be an update on the car? I feel like some things have been done to it recently.

LOL I was like who is this fool?

Cut and paste form this thread: https://mbworld.org/forums/new-s-cla...ics-video.html

Here we go ladies and gentlemen!

21" HRE M56 one piece forged wheels, in brushed aluminum finish, thanks to the good folks at Tag Motorsports in San Diego.

They are wrapped up in pleasingly surprising quiet Toyo T1R tires (255/30/21 fronts and 285/30/21 rears). They are also quite grippy!

Lowering completed by the use of none other than www.adjustableairride.com 's lowering links. They original and undisputed system out there! Forego the imitators, go with the originators! I've had them on my E55 AMG, and they have lived up to their great reputation.

Also see in the photos, Chapparone Auto Body's (San Diego) color matched sidemarkers.

Thanks to Schaefer Rod & Custom for the lowering links install and the debadging of the trunk.

And finally, eBay's taillights

Enjoy the Iphone 4 pics (some post w/ Lightroom). I know they suck, but I will have some pro photos taken soon!

















And the video:

Bro, I remember that sick W210 you had. Ever since I saw the DEPO retrofit a few years back on that E55, I was inspired to have them on my W210 as well. However, this W221 upgrade is definitely lookin' grown-mannish. Godfather is BACK. BAWSS!
