What do you think? We had the car 4 Months now and I think finally I found the wheel we would both like.

VERY NICE!!.... Gun metal center, Chrome rim? Hard to tell.

Posted by: 93' Blue on blue

Look good!

Posted by: 02LSE96LSC91SE84TC

Look good to me.

Titanium looking center and polished lip.

Why not just a set of AMG wheels on there? The ones that came on the E55 look similar to those. Maybe it's me but rims on a Benz just reminds me too much of the drug dealers and the likes in Philly and Camden. I think the AMG wheels are classy and subtle.

I hate AMG wheels, very ugly imho.

Posted by: NYC LS8

I can dig 'em.

Who makes 'em?

Posted by: ONEBADMK8

Ruff Racing 278 style wheels Bolt pattern 5x112 with a 35+ offset.

Me likey

Any pics of the Benz? You posted them on here before didn't you? I can't find them.

Your pretty good at photoshop.....throw them on there digitally and see how they look.

Is the wife letting you "play" with this car at all?

Posted by: ONEBADMK8

You would like the price too!! $1250.00 shipped!! Chrome lugs and all.

Unreal deal. These are going to look slammin on the blue Benz. I am torn on either the titainium or the black spoke.

Heres the car:

We did the CL grill in black and the flat hood emblem I would think the black spokes would compliment the grill but I LOVE the titainium look.

PLEASE dont do black wheels

Posted by: devilchild

arent those Bimmer wheels??... i htink ive seen those on multiple BMW's...

either way.. still cool

Posted by: glanga

That a C32?

Posted by: ONEBADMK8

No its a C230 Kompressor.

Posted by: Sal329

The new C class is sexy. Geno let me know if you need parts for it. I work for BMW but the owner also owns a Benz dealer so I get a good discount.
Ohh and go with the Titanium just my $.02

Posted by: 21stcenturygadgetguy

I would go Titanium...Black is overrated...and Titanium would look cool w/the Blue!

It is a little "overdone" and the titainium looks so clean and not too flashy.

Yes drug dealer with HIDEOUS rims, the Ruff's look too classy and clean to be "Ghetto" You will never see these in C town or Kiladelphia because all they run is the most hideous rims I ever saw!LOL!

As for the AMG's they are too plane and too used on the MB lineup imho.

They make them for a ton of cars. They are on a Beemer in the photo too! LOL!

I love the offset lipage too, sexxxyy.

Posted by: Dmaup

Those look really good

I'm a fan!

Posted by: glanga

Since AMGs are out of the question....I think gunmetal wheels would look great on that color car.

Yes AMG's are very much out of the question simply because they are hideous.

Look at these, you can't possibly think these look good? Same car with AMG wheels. Yuk IMHO. NO lip, inverted spokes, plain and boring.

Posted by: glanga

No no no, I don't mean those AMG wheels. Those are just the wheels that came on the C32. They are ugly as hell.

Any of these are AMG wheels just as a reference.

It keeps a stock aspect but still looks good. I like the E63s or C63s which are 19's. The stock C32s are 17's.

Posted by: ONEBADMK8

Hell, her stock wheels look 100 times better then the AMG wheels.

Posted by: ONEBADMK8

I like these but still NO lip, gotsta have a lip!! LOL!

Man that guys prices are 3 weeks past retarded!! The grill I have cost me $123.00 SHIPPED, same grill on his site is $375.00!!!!

Posted by: glanga

Yeah I like lips too.....lips of all kinds.

I posted that site just a reference for you to look at, not to buy from. That place is in Australia so I'm going to assume the prices aren't in USD.

Is she letting you play with this one a little?

Yes I have been. Best yet 14.18 @99 mph. ASP crank pulley 27hp 12psi now from a stock 8psi, Renntech ecu, AMG Muffler, removed rosonator, Custom intake we made at the shop. You can really hear it whine nice now! LOL!

First set you posted, buy them now. You wont regret it.

Also, the stockers look like Mazda6 wheels.

Posted by: KD00LS

I'd rock gunmetal on Blue. I don't think black would look right. IMO black is for neutral colors.
