My E63 S on HRE RS101s
With warmer weather upon us I put the HRE RS101s on my car this week. The car was professionally photographed foe HRE's website as well and those pics should be up shortly.
Thanks to HRE wheels, Paul Howey at Howey Industry who sold me those wheels and worked with me throughout the build process, Mercedes of Massapequa who sold me the car, Detailing Dynamics which did all the appearance and electronic mods on the car and Mercedes of Rockville Center who installed the Renntech mods.
Here are my own pics.

They are 19s. OEM size in front. A half inch wider than OEM width in the back.
Would have loved to have bought 20s or done a big drop but not with our terrible New York City roads.

Looks solid ... Congrats ... Should net you better traction (if that's even possible) going wider in the back

Did something similar recently as well by getting a set of HRE P43SC in satin charcoal. Stayed with the stock 19x9 up front and went 19x10 in the back. Went with the 295 wide Michelin PSS rear tires and the car handles like it lost 200 pounds.

i drive them all, fast and hard
its so weird how when u swap wheels aftermarket yet dont upsize, the car looks weird, yet in the oE set up, it looks fine...
granted 20s always look better than 19s, but driving on rubber bands has no performance advantage....so nice job with the 19s
did u use stock tires sizes

@sdg if you're concerned about ride quality it's good you didn't go for the 20s as I definitely notice the car's a little more harsh. I've gotten used to it though. From what I hear though Seattle streets aren't nearly as bad as NYC. I already spend a lot of time babying my rims and being very caution when driving.
Weren't you getting some 20" ADVs for the summer, though? Or perhaps I'm confusing you with someone else.

They look smaller because it's a multi piece wheel, so the lips with the smaller spokes kind of get swallowed up. I'm running 3 piece 20" HREs on mine and IMO it's just right because the larger diameter by 1" balances out the multi piece setup. The stocks look the way they do since the spokes go almost all of the way to the tire.

I did get ADV005 wheels but got them for my 991 Turbo S. They are beautiful.

Oh that's right I forgot you switched the order over to that car. Are those 20s?
