Don't follow tirerack sizing. Go to a benz forum. If you're going to stay stock height just find amg stockers though, aftermarket rims alot of the time look like shit stock height lol.


so if I put 19s on at stock height it'd look bad?

Aftermarket rims especially in larger sizes make the wheel gap look even bigger alot of the time lol. The stock amg model rims will look better than 90% of aftermarket rims at stock height.

His speedo wouldn't be wrong if he got the right tires.

plastidip is simple lol http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OlyB3FbYRRs

I'd definitely take the rim off the car first though

I saw that vid and another one with taking rims off?
does it not chip off easy? like is it good and lasts a while?

I put more down on the car so I'm gonna need a few months before rims and rubbers

and I was gonna plasti dip both emblems and the 250 on the back
being able to do it on my rims would be jokes for a temp fix
