Congrats OP.

Don't get caught at felony speed!

Also.... Be ready for suicide attempts performed by those driving that Prius (always parked in the left lane!) who are bound and determined to see to it that your eeeeevil wicked naughty twin-turbocharged bent twelve makes fuel economy as high as 20mpg by keeping you and all others to 60 on the freeway regardless of traffic, time of day ect.

While I don't personally have a W220, I gotta say these cars aged wonderfully! Especially with that TTv12

'94 SL600,'05 SL600,'06 S65,'07 E63,'14 E63S,'09SL600 all sold, ‘15 S65,‘18 E63S,'17 SL65, '17S65Cab
They are nice wheels. From the pictures I believe the wheels are from a W221. Looking at the middle picture the rear wheels appear to be 44 offset rather than the 60 offset required for the 2006 S65. I always ran 285-35x19 tires on the rear of my 2006 for better traction & performance. With the 60 offset wheels there was about 1/4” clearance. A 44 offset wheel would not work with that tire size without fender lip mods.
