Stock for sure......at least silver!

Not to offend but I think that Black wheels on anything but a black don;t look good......and on a black car they just look dirty!

Im voting for stock as well. Those wheels just look dirty on a silver car. Plus as others said, there is not much to that particular Carlsson wheel.

Stockers for sure. 18s look perfect on the W211.

Ok, went back to stock. The car drives 10000000000000000% better. I never knew the difference it made because I was born with the 19in Carlssons. Stock wheels are gonna stay on the car for a while. The car looks A+. We got the Eisenmann, the rear diffuser, the tune, and all I need now to complete the package is a front lip. PM me if you know someone who knows someone who knows what truck to follow around town! In the mean time, here are some pics of my Carlssons on a black E55. They look insane and MUCH better than on my car. Its a shame because they were nice wheels, just not on silver. Plus his car is SLAMMED!

Your friend's E55 is tucking like a ****'! I love the black with yellow calipers. Your girl looks great with the stockers too. The rear lip and your badges keep it from looking stock but its subtle enough to still be classy. Caliper color change for you as well? I've seen some pics of TheGodfather's E55 with a gorgeous blue caliper that looked gorgeous.
