I ended up going with BBS CH-R wheels in titanium. I also replaced the orange side markers with painted. Here are a couple of pics.

Looks good mate. How heavy are they each?

Looks great!

They're not the lightest wheels on the market. They weight about 26 lbs each.

Looks good, does light still shine through the painted side markers?

Very nice wheels... love the finish! What are the spec? I believe the highest offset they offer for our rear is 19x9.5 +45mm... do you think you can still lower the car w/o rubbing?

I was worried about it and asked the MB service tech to spray paint the bulbs but he refused stating it was a fire hazard. Luckily, the paint blocks all of the light, so no need to paint the bulbs.

Thanks. You're correct on the rear offset. They are 19x9.5 +45mm, but I do not plan on lowering it, so I should be good to go.

Very nice..I want that same set up with Bright Silver instead of Titanium but I hear alot of issues with rubbing...I'm a little concerned since I did put H&R Springs on my car...A couple guys who didn't lower their car and have same wheels are having the problem to! Offset may be too aggressive plus it may depend on what tires u run? which tires do u have?

I haven't experienced any rubbing, although my car isn't lowered. I am using the Michelin Pilot Super Sport 235 front / 265 rear. This setup was approved by Tire Rack for what it's worth.

yeah..Tirerack is where I was going to get them and they did approve the set up but some guys are having problems and it worries me..I guess its trial and error but I want it to be perfect from the start...Seems some guys have the problem and some don't...tough to get a straight answer...I want to go with Michelins also but they are a meaty tire and with the car being lowered, it may give more of a chance for a problem..so with that being said, I may go with a diff tire and stay with the same set up
