Those rims should be stock on every SL55. Kamil...that is just a clean look. You have enough black detail (rear spoiler + front spoiler lip)...keep it that way...just a good balance.

Thanks man, the car sits exacly the same from the ground to each fender in a perfect level garage. Maybe I will lower the front a bit more to make it look a little better.
