I think they paintes them. 500$ painted and repaired. They had major curb rash from previous owner.

So bad that it cost me 2 tires cause it would deflate.

I was worried they would look small, but they look bad ***.
Just need to matte black the chrome with some 3M and its a hit.

hey fromm3 when you pulled your rear QP, did you completely flatten out that lip? or is there still a noticeable fold between

edit: you need 5-10 mm spacers for the rear!

Couldn't find wheels with the right look so I went with S65 reps for now. Many thanks to Sonic Tuning for the great service and deal on the wheels.

Wheels: ST181 19x8.5 +32 & 19x9.5 +35
Tires: Hankook Ventus V12 Evo 255/35/19 & 285/30/19

You can't go wrong with this winning combo. Your W211 looks great. I also bought my wheels from Ray a while back, really cool guy to deal with too. I'm running a sqaured 19x9.5 setup though with spacers and 90mm stud conversion as my winter setup.
