Which Wheels??? Help me decide?

Hi,
Im looking for some new wheels to help my car put the power down.
Currently running OEM 19"s but assume i need something a little wider prob 10.5" is assume.
But not sure who to go for.
I do like HRE and am aware of what they offer having had some on my previous car (M3), but feel they are better suited to BMW than Merc as the Benz has a more angular design.
But as i like the look of the OEM wheels woudl like something similar possible even some other AMG wheels.

Does any one have any suggestions? photos even better?
Thansk Tom

While very expensive, i absolutely love these wheels. This pic doesn't do them justice. They are stunning in person.

They are similar to some of the Advan wheels.

If memory serves me correct, they were in the neighborhood of $6300 for the set without tires.

What do you want out of a wheel? I assume spending a little doesn't bother you if you're considering HRE's.

If you want a 3 piece wheel then I would love to see some of these on your car (ADV10) ... (I hope Peter doesn't mind me using this photo)



Or if you want monoblocks then (ADV10.1)...

I would go with HRE or CCW.

CCW is light weight and very strong, great price too.

hmmmmm there is something about the OZ brand i dont like, maybe because they also do very cheap wheels, it kind of takes the shine off the brand, although i have read awsome review about these superleggera wheels.
Also i think its def a Monoblock wheel that i want.

This is what I'm considering... Probably the lightest/strongest forged wheels on the market.

You can order from James/Peter at ACGSD. I think if you google execstudio, you'll find it. If you do call 'em, maybe they'll give us a group rate.

Tech1 has a pretty good rep with the porsche guys.

Although I dont like the shadyness associated with ADV1, the 5 spoke wheels they make look pretty damn amazing. (josh w/ the grey widebody c63 has them on his car)

Check out the HRE P47 monoblock 5 spokes

I would not touch ADV.1 after hearing about the way clients were screwed under the previous business entity.
They do look great though!

Sure, but I live in the UK so might not be worth your while.
