My S550 - 22 by 11.5" in the back!

Hi guys, I’ve been a member since 2004, I have never posted anything I only read. I decided to post about the new rims I got for my car. AUTO COUTURE makes them. 22 by 9” in the front and 22 by 11.5” in the back with a 4” lip.

265-30-22 Front and 295-25-22 in the back.

These rims were special order for a 2007 S550

I will take more pictures and post them.

Wow...11.5 in the back! Do you have any issues with rubbing? Do you have the full Auto Couture kit installed? What exhaust is that and what shop did the work for you? Sorry for all the questions, but your car looks sick!

Beautiful!! Can hardly wait for more pics! How is the ride? What tires do you have? What other mods besides the wheels? Interior color? Are you a dealer? I ask because of that MB plate on the car.

Wait till NevadJack sees that...

Thank you very much...The car doesn't rub eventhough it's dropped. I only have the Auto Couture wheels and not the whole kit. I had the exhause tips done at AAA in Los Angeles. They did my Eclass as well. their work is very clean!
