MBWorld Fanatic!
I like the design of those wheels & they look good on the E55. The lip is insane, however it may be a little too big for this type of car IMO. Hey, to each his own. Enjoy the ride!

I agree... I am not feeling the lip on your car, it looks a little too much IMO but hey, to each his own!

do you drive with sport 2 mode? Did you adjust anything?
The reason I ask is because I put the identical size 20's and tires on an E500 Sport and it would rub, not only against the bolt but also teh inner fender when turning

I really like the lips on your wheel.. I think 4-5 in lip in the rear is just about perfect in my opinion.

I would be careful with your front fenders thou. I have seen many cars that damage the fenders while driving up a drive way. I'd just make a habbit of raising the car up before you go up any drive ways.
