Spoke to luke today, I'm convinced these wheels are sweet on the car...

I just phtoshopped em on, and I really like it, 16" size, perfect for me because I don't have to spend a fortune, and I really like how my car looks and rides on 16's.

Check it out, I'm going to get them as soon as I can.

Thanks for the heads up luke, Ya convinced me they looked good, but now I am set on em. Now all I need to do is save a little

They are the Mille Miglia Bellos and I like em a lot.

Thumbs up

At first glance, I thought your MB was an S-class coupe.

Looks good.

That is my first choice when I was looking for a wheels for my 190e but i found a 01' c class take off wheels (7 spoke) looks good on 190e.

Well I just photoshopped every 16" wheel that tirerack offers for my car on my car, and The bellos look the best.

The borbet type e's look pretty good too, but the bellos have something that the others dont.

Thanks to luke I've decided on the bellos for sure. Now I just gotta saveup for em.

I know some would say 17's just look better, but if ya think about it, 16's = not too much stress on suspension, tires = much cheaper, and I like how the car rides and drives on 16's.

I like the look of 17's, don't get me wrong, but I'd rather not risk having to repair suspension often, and the tire costs for decent 17" tires. plus the only 17's I really like on the car cost almost the same price as 3 16" bellos...

I'll definately keep you guys posted as soon as I get em, hopefully in a few weeks.

Alon

tire rack ought to change their "try-on" pix cuz the one they have for the bello is chrome and doesn't do it justice...

Good choice !

Your car looks great with the 16" Bellos. I was thinking on them before I've got my BRABUS MONOBLOCK IV.

Good think about the MM Bellos is that you can fit the MB center caps on them and play with the two options available at the MB dealer.

Just for your record I start riding on the 17's and could not feel the difference compared with the 16's...still the same smooth ride !

Time will tell on the suspension repairs, who knows !

Please let us know when you receive the new shoes for your car.

Did I mention that I love the pictures of your Mercedes on your web-page ? Beautiful shine !!!

Good luck !
