From BMW to Benz, hi Im Esa, but i have a q?

Hmmm. Not sure on this , I'm not too up on cars which are covered by warranty.
Sounds a little anal though!

As long as the wheels are recognised by MB and the tyres supplied are given the correct profile to match the original rolling radius then there's no need to change anything at all. I'd question the warranty people on this, I doubt any problem. Unless the wheels are non heat treated alloy or you use incorrect non-MB bolts there should be no probs at all.

Hey friends me again

So the diamond cut wheels are in look very nice

Now i remember someone mention get the collinite wAx 845 i got it

Now im
Wondering how do i take care of the wheels from being eroded?

My routine:

Wash ( will not jetwash wheels will hand clean them)
Polish ( need to find a good polish maybe autogylm wheel cleaner)
Seal ( poorboys wheel sealant)
Wax ( collinite 845 wax)

What you guys think?

I use a washing up brush and liquid soap with warm water on wheels.

Re the hubs and calipers I use Hamerite and get the decals from Ebay

Nope, you have H7 lamps. If you go on Amazon there are Osram Night Breaker Ultimate for sale, £14.50 per pair from the Osram Amazon store. These are what you want.

btw: Be careful - I looked at the link you put up for the Crystal Vision bulbs... in the small print it says they "do not comply with ECE R37 regulations and are not road legal" so if you use these you could get pinched!

RE BULBS,
4300 kelvin are optimum 5000 kelvin (which I fitted to my E320)are whiter but not brighter to the eye, also the bluer (higher k)the bulb the more light it reflects so not so good with road spray etc. That's why the sky looks blue and fog lights used to be yellow
And just in case it's not already been mentioned, if you change your wheel size you should inform your ins comp

It was your post on 27/07:
""bulbs i have found these bright ones they are expensive and i think they do not sacrifice illumination like you said. so i found these (http://www.powerbulbs.com/product/crystal-vision-h7) for the high beam..."

But maybe you've discarded these now anyway?
