Cool

Hello Ronald_m,


Those are nice wheels. I prefer the Carlsson. They look beefier and they carry "that" badge...

the carlsson's look great on the e320.

The other wheels are nice too, but the curves int he carlssons look great with the lines fo the e320.

I vote for the Carlsson too. But just so you know, those are Carlsson 1/5s. The 2/5s are multipiece. I had 18" 2/5s on my last car, and they are absolutely gorgeous. Pictures don't do them justice.

Carlsson all the way.

Just installed 1/5 Diamond 18's on my 97 E320 last night. Amazing what a refreshed look it has over the (now) dull OEM wheels. If it is the 1/5 and not the 2/5 go to Tire Rack. Luke set me up with these and S03 (235/40/18 and 265/35/18) for an unbeatable price.

Props to Luke and Tire Rack.
