New wheels for my E55
Thanks to bamaster for a sweet deal on the rims and tires. Love the lip and the 5 spoke design. Sorry for the crappy iphone pix, i was giddy like a school girl on a friday night when i threw these on yesterday!

Hope you guys like it.

Aww yeah! It's weird for me to see your car... it looks just like mine did!

Love the red calipers, the wheels really expose them. Like a hot school teacher with a red silk garter belt peeking through.

This was the setup for a E55 owner that raced on the track a lot. He said there was no rubbing in sport mode 2 and the car was very balanced in the turns.

(F) 18x9.0 et39 | 265/35-18
(R) 18x9.5 et33 | 265/35-18 or 285/35-18 or 285/30-18

No spacers. AMG wheels: Stock E55 rears on front and SL55 rears on rear.

More shots of my square wheel setup. Tires are staggered (255F/285R).

Ideally, I would like to run 275/35-18 all around so that it behaves more balanced (mostly to reduce understeer on turn in).
