You really want opinions? You know what they say about opinions....

My opinion is it looks like a overly lowered C230 with overly large and terribly blingy heavy chrome wheels on it.

If you fancy yourself a gangsta I guess it would be phatt? Did I say that right?

I disagree. I don't think a 1.5" drop is too much. It's really the least drop any decent lowering springs, like Eibach or H&R, are going to offer. And while 19" is a bit to large for me, and chrome wheels are not my thing, they are not outlandish these days. Cars right from the factory can have similar wheels as an option.

So, I think is looks pretty good. I do like the wheel design, and the chrome doesn't look bad. IMO it's a big improvement over the stock 15" wheels and large wheel/fender gap.

How is the handling?

I don't think it looks bad at all, however, I would be inclined to ask the same question that has been asked; "how's the handling, and how's the ride?"

IMO when those who don't know...gets into a Benz...they're expecting something that they don't believe other automobiles have. But when you shock them with a ride the feels like bricks, it takes away from your ride.

Sometimes, because of the type of vehicle you have, it's not a good idea to sacrifice prestige and comfort, for faddish styles that will pass and leave you footing the bill.

I don't think the red goes with the white so well. Plus the x's are a bit too low and big.
