I personally dislike the look of white wheels. The stock ones there aren't too bad. If you change them out you can pick something sportier but I would stay away from 'coloured' wheels. It might cheapen the look of the car.

Never been a fan of white, gold, or most black wheels on MB's.

The Brabus or AMG rims will look better than anything else you can put on it.

Indeed. Or Lorinser if you're a baller like that.

And I have seen that Rick Ross video, and those white wheels are hot.

White wheels are fine if they are luxury white wheels (as opposed to racing) and if they are a classy style. Big chrome lip FTW too.

I think its tacky to put white rims on a white car,especially a benz... thats just my opinion.

AMG wheels




Brabus and their 217 mph sedan using the monoblocks

Who the hell said to put GOLD wheels on a white Mercedes Benz?

By the way, I know someone in my neighborhood with either 19'' or 20'' Zenetti Lucre painted white on a white E500. If I could get ahold of a camera I'll take pics. It looks GREAT spinning but the wheel isn't too hot. It needs a bigger lip.

White rims are nice and all but have fun keeping them clean from break dust. I have an M3 and my rims are dirty in about five days. So it's just something to keep in mind.

ludachrisvt,
You got a classy benz. Don't go white, you'll look ghetto and assy. For god sakes it's a Mercedes-Benz E-class, go with bling rims or keep it stock.

I personally wouldnt do the white wheels either. I have an 06 E55 and i put on the 20" Brabus Monoblock VI, you definitely cant go wrong with them. Only downside is there are a lot of fakes out there.

They're not FIRE IMO Sorry.
I've never been a fan of rims that are the same color as the car...I'd stick with either Chrome or Black.

Yeah, circa 1988 when AMG put all black/white/red/whatevercolor on its cars instead of chrome/steel. No white wheels on a new E, that would look fawkin' stooopid but hey what do I care? It's your car.

Bro, go ahead and do it. No one on this board usually will give a green light to anything you want to do that's different. They'll probably tell you something stupid, like to put some gunmetal wheels on your car. They told me my car would look like shit before I got my wheels and all I get are compliments in the streets. I already said that I've seen the white wheels on an E-class and it looks great if you go 20''. The kid I know with them went way too small and the wheel kinda looks stupid at a stop, but great when it's spinning.

By the way, those Savinis are SICK but a little expensive at $6k. Go for something 5-spoke or 6-spoke with the white - it'll look great.

Been thinking about the E55 kit ... its very expensive though. I think I am just going to save my cash (no kit, no rims) for my CLS550 next summer

That is IF my pops can do an employee deal on it again!
