Nice wheels had them for awhile... HEAVY as ****, these boat anchors are poorly made. The ding and dent easily. You get what you pay for.

Yours were 20's, right? I've got 19's on mine and have always half wondered if they're costing me performance vs the 19's that came with the car (those were 19" E63 replica ebay wheels)

However,

They are heavier than most like but I think one of the classiest looking wheels money can buy on a W211.

In the end though man get what suits you best, it's your hard earned money
