Thanks! Yeah they sure are perty...I would prefer something lighter though. If I was into looks those would be an excellent choice. The Monolites I have are super light. Love them specially after they were powder coated black.

thats a big lip but with a 11.5 rear it should be- those will rub like crazy and plus look at that strecthed tire- they are probably only runnning a 275 on the 11.5 rear

Nice rims! Those actually look nice, I almost always hate chrome wheels, but those look insane! Of course, powder coat would be sexy as hell too. I think I for real jizzed my pants when I saw that CL, a little OT, but anybody know what other parts are on it? It is definitely the best CL I've ever seen, looks like a rear bumper and side skirts? Anyway, once again, those wheels are

Step lips look a lot better in person, especially on a nice set of BBS LM's or HRE C20's.

Not really feeling these though, look like they belong on a dumped old school VW or something.

LMs are the *****, possibly the best wheel ever made imho, either that or HRE 504s

But I think these look appropriate.

Agreed, had them on my M and plan on saving up for a set of 20's for the E.

Hard to beat the stepped lip and look of this wheel on any car.

Sick, now I know you can fit 11.5s on the back of a W211. Makes me happy.

I don't like those at all. They are too gottie/hooptie for a Mercedes. I'm not trying to be racist or anything but those look like they belong on a Mexicans ride. Deeper isn't always better.
