^Steelies are understandable... however not sure if they can fit over cars with big brakes. Is it a car enthusiast type thing or just common practice by everyone? I'd be impressed if even the average Karl had an extra set of steelies/tires for every vehicle in the household.

Well, enthusiasts either go for alloys or plastidipped steelies if they want to be, ehm, "cool". Of course, OEM steelies on most vehicles today don't go over 16" sizes so they aren't allowed on the more powerful/expensive trims (if the car gets bigger brakes; e.g. BMW M Sport brakes etc.). But base-spec diesels are the most popular engines in Germany even in mid-size sedans like the aforementioned E-class. You'd say that they must be company cars, well, lots of them are but then you see a guy in his 40's driving an E60 M Sport on steelies... :lol:

 

Germans are weird.
