Thinking about pulling the trigger on these, anyone have any major concerns? I'd also love to see some pictures, pref silver with polished. Also do 20's look rediculous wihout springs? Should I only go 19 if not planning on springs?

Thanks.

no 20's will look fine with the sports suspension.... check out out member Mrfva, i think he's rolling on those wheels and don't think his car is lowered.... it looks very nice! GL!!

if you run 35 series and 30 series rear, you dont have to lower it.If you like the GT!, also consider the Beyern Mesh.

Here are silver GT1's on a lowered E-Class. Hope this gives you an idea.

dropping is personal taste. 20s will look good whether dropped or on sport package

Yup, 100% true. All personal preference. Why should you care about what someone else thinks about your car, unless they are making that payment for you.

NeRwEEzy, I need to talk to you about wholesale. PM me your email or contact info.

I def agree, just want to avoid that "stage-coach" look with the huge wheels and gap. I'm also not a terribly flashy kinda guy and appreciate a more sporty look. Thanks for everyone who contributed pics and advice.

Ya but you have a sport package. You should see my car with 19" 166's and non-sport, non-lowered. Looks like a bloody big foot.

TOO MUCH GAP............
