The more time I spend on the MB boards the more I'm beginning to regret selling my E60.

mbworld.org is the most uninformative useless forum I've ever been on, in fact, toyotanation.com was much more informative than these people.

I know this is a ridiculous question, but can anyone recommend a helpful forum for benzo drivers (modding, tech, maintenance-wise).

Thanks in advance.

I suspect the demographics for the MB includes folks who are more likely to look for high performance batteries for their scooters and pacemakers. One exception are the AMG crowd - maybe there is a forum you could hunt down.

Yeah no kidding..

But it's nice to see proper grammar on the boards, just saying.

I am on the AMG boards, but the 63 and my W211 are styled differently so it's not very helpful as far as modding is concerned.

I want my E60 back

I have seen some nice MB with clean mods. But I have to say in HK 90% of the driver are very old (looks over 40+)
I have never seen a under 30 owning a E class but have seen loads owning a E60.

<-- Under 30.

It'll come out clean. Trust. Probably revert back to a 535 E60 or F10 in the future.

I know it's going to be hard to gauge, but any help is appreciated.

Picked up a set of HRE 547's that came off a 2003 SL 500 (R203). Anybody know if these will for a 2009 W211? Not sure about the offsets as the inner barrels were swapped out..

Fronts are 20x8.5 (245/30/20)
Rears are 20x11 (305/25/20)

I know for sure the rears aren't going to fit..but my question is, does anyone think they will fit after some work?

Thanks guys.
