Here are the wheel caps...the Center Metal Cap is stained and HRE forgot to repolish those and will do em for free. They sent me "standard" caps in the mean time.

Tires are Michelin Pilot PS2 245/35/19 Front, 275/30/19 Rear.

Wheels are 19x8.5 Front and 19x10 Rear.

I have the same center caps! And those wheels looks delicious! Can't wait to see them installed. Where are you located? If you're in southern cali we have an AMG meet going on on Feb 5 saturday at the Pasadena rosebowl. You should come check it out if you can. I know there will be 2 other 211 E55's that has the same setup as you!

Can you use tire pressure sensors with that wheel? HRE547 accept them but I don't know about "R" version.

The only dissappointment I have with the HRE547r is the small lip on the front rims. There is about 1 1/2 inches of space between the rim and the brake caliper. The place where I ordered my rims contacted HRE to find out why there was so much spacing between the rim and brake caliper and whether or not they can reconfigure their mold to reduce the spacing hence, increasing the lip. I was suppose to send them pictures of the spacing issue but never got around to it.

It all depends on who you order from. Some dealers got the specs to do it a little bigger. I think on a 9" wide wheel i can 2" lip on the front, and on a 9.5" rear wheel, we are 1 of the only dealers that have the specs to fit a 4" lip on the rear of a W211 E55.

ouch! a 2.75 rear lip! you can easily fit a 3.5" rear. The 4" is only able to be done by very few places with the spces to do so. But it should have been at least a 3" on yours. Who did you order them threw?
