Do you think these would look good on a black E55?

For me, I don't like the red lip...although, wrapped in tires and put on a slammed black 55, my mind may change...

Did, but I picked up a 2003 E55 for cheap. Had 19" 08 S Class wheels and they were terrible looking on the car. They were the non-staggard. I sold those to a member for his 09 S class 4-matic. I need some new shoes. But I know the West coast guys are ahead of the curve on style so was just checking. I will pass on these then.

So what sucks worse is I sold the DPE's to a member and really don't want to back out on him. They are waiting to ship.

In the end you need to what's best for you. If you feel you made a mistake and decided not to sell the rims you would hope that the buyer would be understanding. If not just apologize and move on...just my $.02.

1989 Toyota Tercel EZ - dyno'd @ 70whp/77wtq
Get Benz O Rama's VIP Modular... looks very nice. You could always repaint it if you don't like brushed aluminum. If you do repaint, I would go as far as gun metal... just to give a little contrast.
