Thinking of changing it up a bit, how about seeing those siver W211's!
Hello!
I've been thinking about changing up the look of the ride for a bit. Currently sitting low on some stock E63 18's. I love the clean euro look but it never hurts to try new things.
Would you guys please post pics of your silver 211's and or pics of things you've seen that look good on a 211.
Thanks, look forward to your posts!

slightly upgraded wheels
These aren't too different, but I think a slight upgrade of the stock 63 wheels, and come in black as well. I got them when I bent 2 stockers with a pothole, got the set of 4 for $1000 ($1500 with cheap nexen all-seasons mounted/balanced) and they were shipped free to the door in about 3 days, with new lug nuts and center caps. 18x8.5 front 18x9.5 rear, with 245/40/18 and 265/35/18 tires, respectively. Fit perfectly.
I think they are a great alternative for 55 guys wanting to upgrade to the stock 63 look. These are about the same, with the spokes coming to a slightly narrower point, and the little windows are cut out of each spoke (still has AMG stamped into a spoke)

I love my F10's but I have a realy bad feeling they don't have an adequate load rating for our heavy cars. 3 of my 4 wheels have cracked in < 10k miles of use, 2 of them have cracked in MULTIPLE locations. All happening on the inner barrels. No bends, don't notice it until they start loosing air. Fixed one of the wheels only for it to crack in 2 more locations. NOT happy with them, not sure I"m going to continue with them next season. Fixing them to find them cracked again months later is tiring.

Yes, I preordered through Godfather and got one of the first sets. Forgestar won't admit any fault and help out in my situation, vendor is out of business and can't go to bat for me and the wheels aren't exactly new anymore either. I know many people are happy with their F14's, could just be an issue with the F10. I'd be the first one to admit fault if I was whacking curbs or something but I'm pretty careful with my wheels...have had the same set of 19's on my daily driver for >10 years / 160k miles with less issues than I've had in 10k miles with my Forgestars.

Here is mine on a set of Roderick RW-2s. 20x10 rear, 20x 8.5 front. Also currently for sale. They have a great stance, car needs to lowered like yours to look awesome, but I'm old and don't like getting out of low cars anymore

The more I see the Silver 55's, the more I wish I would not have listened to my wife! She talked me out of Silver because our E60 is Silver.....thought it would be "weird" to have 2 cars the same color. But, I don't see many Black Opal 55's, so I guess I am kinda rare.
GREAT Lookig rides, BTW!
