Need info: 2012 C-class sedan 7 spoke vs 5 spoke 18" AMG wheels

Hey guys,

I'm placing an order on a 2012 C350 SEDAN this weekend. Of the 2 18" wheel choices...are the dimensions the same? Does anyone know the weight of each wheel?

Assuming they both are, I'm currently in favor of the 7-spoke, but if the 5-spoke is wider and/or lighter, then I may have to change my decision.

Thanks in advance.

-Ernest

I went with the five-spoke, but the seven isn't bad. I kind of like the traditional AMG look.

Get the 5-spoke. The 7-spoke just look too "plain" IMO.

Thanks, but I'm really looking for wheel dimensions. But if we're basing it on looks alone, I'd have to go for the 7-spoke since I'm already surrounded with too many 5-spokes in my area.

At this point, the only thing that'll convince me other wise is if the 7-spoke wheels are thinner. I have only 24 more hours to decide.
