here's a couple of older pics, sorry the last few are a little blurry but you get the point low and daily driven on some sh**ty norcal roads. you just need a slight pull so it's not very noticeable.

You can only imagine how it looks now...
what tires are you running? squared sidewalls could also be a problem.

The tires are some generic 245/35/20s.. I kinda figured the walls were a issue, but once I messed up the fenders the first time, I left it.. I'm getting new fenders soon so I'll be picking up some 19's and changing up the setup..

09' E63 wagon ( white ), 09' E63 wagon ( grey )
I have been looking at wheels for the past month and I can't find the right ones. My favourite are the ADV10 but $6K is just ridiculos for rims. I was looking at Advan, Weds Sport and Rota but they just don't have the right staggered set up that I'm looking for. I'd like to get 18X9 or 9.5 for the front and 18X10 or 10.5 in the back. Deep concave rims with 5 or 10 spokes!
I have only seen one E55/63 that has the ADV10 rims on and they look great.
Any suggestion will be great.

What's your price range? HRE, CCW, Forgestar, DPE, BBS and many others make great looking wheels for our cars.

My price range is $2000 without tires. I looked at all the wheels available from the offical MB tuners and I can't find anything that I like. I also loked at the new american luxury wheel companies, still nothing in my price range. The ADV10 is an awesome wheel but way over priced. My favourite are the wedssport TC105N, too bad they are 5X114.3 bolt pattern.
