they look a bit cheap to be on a benz, and a bit small but that's my opinion

depends on the look your going for. they're good looking rims, and even though they're on the smallish side in my opinion, if you lower the car a wee bit i think it will look great

I like them, I picked up something similar to this style but in 19's. Will probably put them on this weekend but I like your setup

Is that a Rebadge? amgalex are you sure that's not a E320 Undercover? I think we need to see a few Engine Pics

J/K

All jokes aside I actually like the rims / the deepdish looks tight in the back. Are they staggered? If you would to drop it.... it would look 110% Better (hence why they look tiny)

No really, tell him how you really feel.

Um....I mean.....if you're using them as a $500.00 winter set then they're fine. But as wheels go, not my cup of tea.

This is my second day driving around with these wheels on and at first I was not sure but now I like them, they look more aggressive than stock did and I think they go perfect on a silver car, I can't believe so many people don't like them. 19" would look real nice but im Ok with 18" , a thought crossed my mine on putting 19" only in the back I wonder how that would look
