Great design, and an absolutely perfect color choice. Tell us more about the rims: manufacturer, size, ET, and color?

How much do the wheels cost you if you dont mind sharing. Also, are they 2 pcs wheels?

Look really good on your E55. Congrats.

TIA

Finally you put the pics up...

Pics look awesome but the wheels look even better in person.

I'm not 100% sure on the wheel weights.

They are Kinesis K19R's in a 19x8.5F and 19x10R. The finish is the standard anodized shot peened finish from Kinesis. And they are a true 3 piece wheel. Post some pics of the car after the drop!~!

What kind of camera do you use to take your pictures? They look crisp.

I like those wheels on your car much more than on Sun's- sorry Sun!! The spoke color IMO does not go well with silver cars, but on yours

It's funny how you mention that. Because when we put the wheels on and took a look at it, it seems as if though the wheels were meant for the car. The color of the wheels fits the car very well. I would have to say even better then silver. I stepped back, looked at the car, and I fell in love all over again.

I was the guy in ther Flint Grey E55 who took off... couldn't wait any longer. Heard it was a LONG evening. They have my SL55 over there now and I guess they ran late again... Picking it up in the morning. Did you get your sled lowered?

I'd like to take more pictures of the car lowered and that side picture, but my car's in the shop and i'm going crazy. I'll take some pictures after i get it back in about a week. Also, that's not my house... it's my parents house.

Why is your car in the SHOP for 1 week?
