Anyone ever though about...

What the SLR wheels would like on the E55? Can someone maybe photochop them on? I am really really interested in seeing what this would look like. Although I bet Mercedes would charge out of this world prices for wheels. Still, if someone wouldn't mind photochopping it.

Here's some pics if it helps.

Alright alright alright, MB Fanatic, no need to rub it in!!! Haha. Sucks, I wish we could have some type of meet here, but there aren't enough cars here. I would come to some of the other meets, but want to keep the miles off. I really need to get a trailer to just hauk it with. I WOULD KILL to be able to come to a meet in Cali!! Ahhhhh

I havent been to a single meet yet. I just dont have the time to get out to a meet as badly as I want to. Every weekend im either at the office, at the hotels, family stuff, or religious stuff.

Your job, family, and religion comes way over the top than a meet. I feel like this forum is an extended family of mine, everyone's so friendly.

Yup, I dont see my two little girls in the day and by the time I get home they are usually about to go to sleep, so about the only time I get to spend some real time with them is on the weekends.

AKxSpyO- Well atleast you know how to take care of it!!! Hell yeah. Most youngens would just run it through the Shell Car Wash! LoL. Anyway, FLINT GREY IS BEAUTIFUL. Although, on all my previous cars, I tinted most of the windows, BUT I love the factory blue tint enough to leave it along. Just personal opinion. BTW- You need to buy these wheels! NOW!- haha

MB FANATIC- Sounds like you got your priorities straight!

ZOMG so sexy. I was thinking of HRE's however those look sexy. Thanks for the link, gonna look into it now. Yea i know how to take care of my cars, a whole shelf of my garage is full of chemicals. BTW i recommend the Sonus Gloss Shampoo. THE BEST CAR SHAMPOO IN THE WORLD. Not a lot of suds but brings out the shine after every wash.

I think the SLR wheels look ugly on anything but the SLR.

I agree. Very similar to Lorinser LM6. Also ugly.

btw, nice chop job on the white e55!
