Those rims in your original pics (with the red on them) are VERY deep lipped. I think I agree with the guys on leaving your rims as is.

I think I might just paint the face of my wheel the same color as my car and leave the lip polished.....what do u guys think about that? Can anyone photoshop that for me? Just the face of the wheel pearl white like the body of my car?

IMO your wheels spokes are to narrow to notice the LWP you have.

The reason it is so noticeable on the Merc is because they are huge wheels, with a thick 5 spoke.

Leave them as they are, or go with a traditional color setup.

Don't get rid of your car! It's not worth losing the money you have put into it just to have a 6-speed and navi.

Just my of course.

You can't be serious. I agree it wouldn't look good on the TL but the Benz looking like a Donk? C'mon

Leave it as is bro...your car looks tight already...but i could understand the need to change at some point, we all have these ideas in our heads when it comes to our ride.
