Snapped a few shots

Washed her up today so I thought I'd snap a few cell phone shots.. can't wait for the E63 front and a few power adders that are incoming. Nice day today in So.Cal for sure..

LOL, there just 20's like a lot of people run..
I think most 19's look too small, but probably the right size for this car.. the right 19's (concave) look good I should say.
Also, my picture taking ability is lacking.. Thanks bro.

It is lowered.. I had the 20's for about 2 weeks before putting them on cause I thought I'd just go 19's and have the safety of a little more sidewall, but I think 20's look better and got a good deal on some used 20" Falkens.. So i thought wtf, might as well roll with them.. I'll take a better full side shot and you'll see it's lowered. Like I said, couldn't find the right 19's so just pulled the trigger!

Nice clean wheel! I would say get some clear corners but I noticed you are waiting on a 63 front end!

Wheel is sharp but it looks like it need a spacer to push it out a little. What size tire are you running. My DPE are 295s on a 10.5 inch rim.

the rears i believe are a 20x10" +35et but they may be 9.5". No, they are pretty flush for sure.. I need to order two new rear tires as I have a screw in one of them and my tire guy said even if I order the Hankooks which he said are "rounded" 295's will rub or I'd have to get the fenders rolled which I'd rather not do. The fronts might need a little spacer but I think you where talking about the rears. I'll take a back and top shot and post.
Thanks for the feedback.

Yea, was talking about the rear but trying to capture the perfect angle in the perfect light is impossible. My wheels both the DPE and the CLS look alot better in person. I guess unless your a professional photographer which I am not.

BTW, I'm running 285/25/20 Falken 452's in the back. 255/30/20's in the front. Wish I could go 295's but I'm thinking I didn't because the wheels must be 9.5" in the rear and I don't think 295's would fit that rim and +35 offset.
