20x11 in the rear -4.5" lip (305's in the rear!)

i need a 2nd opinion on this.
I have a CLS 55 AMG, currently with Chrome 19" AMG wheels. however i am really pondering on powder coating the wheels to Gloss black. i've seen one pic and it looks decent. any comment on this? what do everyone think of it? please advise.

but it still looks great.
give it a dusting with a rag in between trips, that helps with keeping the nasty brake dust off.
Hmm i didn't think they were 20x12 either but the shop i bought them from said they were..i will double check but you might be right about them being 20x11. Either way they were gonna be the same price so thats good and thinking about it if i had 20x12 i think would stick out past the fender which wouldn't be nice at all, lol. Ill get back to you on that matter, but thanks for the compliments and yea i will definately need to clean them a lot!
Car looks great!!! did you go to parkway to get the tint and wheels done? i would get the brabus 3part rear wing thats whats going to be going on my car next.

Hey, thanks man, i went to parkway to get the tints done (since i live 2 min from there) and right next door there is a new guy who sells rims (SA Customs), i got the rims from him, he also sold me the rims for my truck. Cool dude, good prices, and as i said he is really close so any problems i have, he's right there. He also details cars and sells a few other products for cars but mostly rims. I've seen that rear lip on a few cls's, it looks good might have to get it soon.
