IMO, that looks terrible, those rims take away the 65ness (the little sportiness the car has)

I think they look great, there's enough torque in that AMG engine to counter the increased weight and diameter of the wheels.

I used to have the same size wheel and tire setup on my S65. Had to go back to the stock setup because every corner you go around you want to push the car as much as possible and with that size wheels and tires they rub all the time, after just 2 months I couldnt read anything on the side of the tires.

My 21's should be in this week - got Modulare's 21's in chrome. I was advised to definitely stay away from 22's but 21's were a perfect fit on this car!! I will post of pics when I get it on! Went with the M5 chromes - hope they look good on the 65!!
