Quote: I definately broke the bank with these rims.... NOt HRE money but definatley close to it! I am glad I went with the 19x10s in the rear as it gives a great aggresive look. I could have gone 19x9.5's but I figured x10 would look sick. Thanks for all the comments... I am glad I went this route!
How and where did you get 19x10? I want a set of those the factory 65 wheels are only 19x9.5. Let me know and I will get a set of the rears.

Looks like lowering may cause some problems but hard to tell from pictures. These are great looking wheels.

Jude,

These are factory rims. From what I am told some of the SL65's come with the 19x9.5 in the rears and some come with 19x10 in the rears depending on the year. Just like some come with titanium centers and some come with the polished finish... I can give you my contact where i got these. Maybe he can hook u up..... PM if you want his contact info...

I dont think there would be a huge problem with lowering it. I know the rear wheels are flush with fender but i think when i have people in the rear or go over a bump, the wheel will arc in towards the car and not straight up. YOu know what i am saying? Plus i am looking for no fender gap. NOt really tucked in. I am going to give it a try.. its go to the dealership next week...

i thought that any wheels from the SL is will not fit the E Class as there is a major difference in either setting or bolt placement?

how u managed to fit this one in? it looks very nice.

Yeah I'm running the same wheels. I have no issues with rubbing but my car is stock ride height. I want to lower it but I'm scared I'll have rubbing issues.

Only the offsets are off. The E55 runs et39 and the SL has et33. The bolt pattern is the same.

I'm pretty sure a few members are running those rims on the E without rubbing, but they all run 275s.
