Quite possibly one of the ugliest wheels I have encountered, ruined a beautiful car.

They look like spinners that were put together wrong. Hope the rest of the mods look better.

Not feeling the rims...it just takes away from the classy look of the car. BUT that's me...it's not my ride. Just don't add curb feelers...

I agree with everyone else on the rims. Sorry bro.

I had a couple of questions for you.

1. Why the S Class and not something else with the same engine?
2. Any interior mods planned? Might as well make use of the fact that you're using the S Class chassis IMO.

To each their own. Customer wanted those wheels, and as long as he is happy we are happy!

1. Customer had other model Mercedes sedans and decided to go with their top of the line S class. 3rd one to be sold I believe

2. As far as the interior.. we have been throwing around the idea of getting carbon fiber trim. But the factory dark wood looks pretty good IMO

I definitely agree with this as I searched for a while to find my white E with dark wood interior. But I meant other mods, things that would make the car more comfortable/luxurious or more like an office on wheels. Just curious

There are not any mods that we have discussed regarding the interior other than modifying the trim.

This S Class is extremely comfortable and smooth from the factory. It would be difficult to surpass the ride quality it has now.

Especially for the rims a picture of the whole car would be nice.

Ok Gents, the car is almost complete. The Wald kit did not fit on the 2012 S63 unfortunately.. It needed to have 09 S550 Front bumper guts modified to fit in the wald kit to properly bolt up to the car. So instead we are going to go a different route and have some custom carbon fiber pieces made. Let me know what you think!

And someone please tell me how to edit a post on here...I cannot for the life of me find the "edit" button.

Thanks all!

Whatever there's gas in...
Great job on the car, IMO the wheels are sick! Just unique, tired of seeing traditional mesh style rims on these things.
