Looks great imo! I had stock E63 wheels on my silver E55. Everyone said it looked soooo much better than my black stockers. I'll look for a pick.

I don't get it...'black' stockers?

EDIT: You mean that you black powder coated the stockers?

Also, are you the guy that owns a bar in Huntington, NY? If not, then someone on here owns the bar called Hanu I think. I see that you are from Fla. but pretty sure that the guy doesn't live in NY either.

Yes stock E55 wheels painted flat black to match all the emblems and grille.

And no that's not me. My company does events and my Foundation does swimming lessons, pool safety, parent counseling and grieving for those that have lost children due to drowning.

Here's the MB Club of America car show thread. My car is in the video with the 63wheels.

Click on the third pic (a wheel) to see my car.
