awesome upgrade with eurotech wheels

I would stay away from 20s - you're going to compromise ride quality for aesthetics. I know some dealerships are doing it now but it doesn't make it any less comfortable. Plus, if you live in an area with potholes, you're sure to damage/crack one of your wheels. With a nice deep dish and staggered setups, you can make the 19s work and look great.

Thanks for the info, I'm kind of leaning towards 20s though. I've heard it explained like this: big wheels are like high heeled shoes, they look great but tend to be uncomfortable. I don't drive on rough terrain, just to and from work so I should be ok, will post some pics tomorrow of some styles I'm interested in

I just bought these 19"s from eurotech. I think they will look nice on my car. They are the ML63 AMG performance studio style rims but in 19 inch. I have only heard good things about Eurotech wheels on this forum.

never heard of eurotech wheels but I Just ordered some 20 Savini wheels (8.5 in the front, 10.5 rear) Total set including tires cost me $6,000 but it's a sick wheel and super unique. Hope 10.5 will be ok in the back of my car. Check these bad boys out

There's another guy on the forums that did Savinis on his CLS and it looked pretty hard. My only problem is they look like they stick out a bit? Anybody else see this?
PS 2 piece Savinis vs. 1 pc eurotech wheels or oem wheels is def. a good look if you got the dough!

Considering the turbine lorinser reps from eurotech wheels but in 20" for my S550, saw them for $795 at www.usarim.com seem like a fair enough deal, not sure if I can push 21 or 22 though...?

I know it's a bit off eurotech wheels, savini, lorinser topic but is this insane video an example of what happens with the wrong wheels or just bad driving? Craziest stuff I've ever seen!
