Whoa whoa whoa

Hey now, everyone off my back please. I was just curious to see how the spinner rims looked on a mercedes, thats why I asked for pictures . Never said I was getting them. It's time for rims and I was considering all options. So chiillllllllllll, I won't disrespect the benz like that. Didn't think everyone would respond like that, rather surprising but understandable.

sounds good bro. thank god you are not considering them

but you have to understand, people here are on the most part conservative here and even the ideas of spinners will ensue a riot

spinner rims looks normal only on a clown car, IMO. they are too weird for an everyday driving car. (unless you are weird and therefore a clown it is ok )

They look pretty tight on SUV's but on a Benz?!? A little too "blinb bling" for my liking. Just my personal opinion though. To each their own...

I believe this phrase was used on here before and I like it. Friends don't let friends bling mercedes. I think the original quote was in refrence to Stefan's ML. Might have been benzworld though... I go there occasionally too.

Spinners IMO are trash period. Posers and crap. Get something real like the Davin's or Spreewells, on a RangeRover 4.6HSE, then your talking! Not too much bling, and enough class.
