--Came across this nice build thread of a w211--
I came across this on Stance works, some kid from Sweden did a sweet job. Might not be everyone taste but i think it looks cool, minus the tire size

Taking a high-performance vehicle and deliberately "dumbing down" it's performance with skinny tires and no suspension travel makes my head hurt. Might as well start with a car with non-performance car is all you want to do is have "the look".... Maybe an E320 or something?

i'm with these guys. the skinny tires on wide wheels and can't-fit-a-business-card-between-the-wheel-and-the-body stance is not real attractive to me. I like the car, I like the wheels. Why not just go with a normal tire and give yourself a bit more clearance?

I like it from afar, but IMO those tires on those wheels look hideous up close. If he were to run a normal sized tire it would look alot better. But it's not my car so oh well. Did good on everything else though.

I like the streach tire look but only to a point. If you look at it from the front it looks like he's riding on motorcycle tires. The tire is more round than square ish. Aside from that it looks good. I think a 245-255 would look better though and it should still have the clearance to sit flush.
Look at the gap between the top of the tire to the quater panel of the rear in the first pic. That does look dumb. He could fit a 265-275 in there. Run a cheap a/s tire if he wants to do burnouts as per the story.
