yeah, thx for not killing your car with that hideous crap. I'd rather put old school crager mags or rallys than that. Whew! Stick with HRE, forgeline, etc and you cant go wrong. Good luck.

Everyone has different tastes, no need to apologize

I think a simple wheel looks best on the E55. I have HRE 545Rs on another car that are charcoal, I think they would look great on a Tectite E55.

Many are saying that you're ruining your car with those wheels, and though i might agree, i also think that many people are ruining their cars with ludicrously priced rims as large as 20" (some even in the name of performance - hah), sacrificing what little handling capabilities this car has, all in the name of "looks". I've seen some tastless crap out there, but thats only my opinion. If they exist, someone must like it.

My point? You car. Do what you want. If you like the look, by all means, why let a bunch of whiny faceless people on the intarwheb make aesthetic decisions for you.

Just dont come crying when someone throws a yogurt at you...

Narf,
I hear you but if you have the stock wheels, go to Wal-Mart and put the MF's on, then go enjoy your ride.

I have the same color car with dark grey interior and dark marroon inserts in the seats. (And black onyx trim.) Very classy, especially with stock AMG rims. But if you like it, go for it!!!

Those wheels are sick! (in a bad way though)

Don't do it, but it's your car.

If you got those rims you'd have to call West Coast Customs and have them replace your windsheild with a 50" Plasma TV screen!!

Then you need to remove your trunk and replace it with a 40" Plasma TV Screen!!

Then you need to remove your exhaust and replace it with a 100DVD Changer!!
