Nice! This 19F and 20R set up has crossed my mind. What size tires are you running?

Are those OEM facelifted tail lights? They look great, I’ve been thinking of upgrading mine.

If you're happy I'm happy; I'm never thrilled with how 10" rims appear too fat on these w212 cars....

FF. W212 E63 M156 non-pano 18" P2 ParkT NightV (gone but will be missed).
That looks really good! Love the updated taillights! For W212's exterior, I prefer the pre-facelifted look but the only thing I would like updated is the taillights...I think your car is the first one I have seen. Thumbs up!

I was under the impression that the facelifted LED taillights weren't a simple swap for the earlier W212 models. Is this not the case, or have you done something special to get them working in your beast? Thanks!

I am surprised you are running a 30 series tire out back on a 20" wheel. I would have thought you'd HAVE to go with a 25 (in order to keep the overall height close to stock). But, then again, someone is selling a set of 21's and they were still running a 25 series. That set up is nuts (looks good though). Thanks for the info.

NeveRRRR too fat! I'd throw a 12" with 325's on if they'd fit!

They are aftermarket. I still have my original tails in case these fail. The Original facelift MB tails are hard to retrofit from what i've heard (bumper won't fit around them properly). These fit perfect and were plug and play.

I will admit the rear area of the lights where all hardware is installed / wires connected it does not look near as good as the original tails. I expected it for the price. The outside of them looks great

Meh, i don't think it's too bad unless the offsets are too aggressive

Yeah i wish i could run a size closer to stock with these but i can't unless i bump down to a 25 series in the back. I've done that before and didn't care for it that much. I believe its like 0.7" taller

I think they look brilliant on yours. I always wanted them for my wagon. If you have a link for where you got them it would be greatly appreciated.

I have been down the 10" rear rim road and it has allot more to do with the tire size and offset than the actual size of the rim. My stockers with 295 looks a lot fatter than the 10" aftermarkets with the same size tires.

I have OEM CLS amg rims, 9.5 front 10 in back. The PSS @ 295 on the 10" looks perfect. I wish these cars could run 10" up front and not stick out. It seems with the 9.5 best fit is a 265 but it looks stretched .

Hi, so you are running the OEM CLS63 rims on your W212 E63? if so do you have any pics?
i was under the impression they do not fit.
