S600 on Turbine Wheels

The stock 16's were killing me. Wanted a cleaner look that filled fenders but wanted to retain the stock, understated exec flagship presence. I love the look of a turbine wheel on a sedan because it somewhat vanishes when spinning and therefore is quite elegantly understated.

Did some research and found that if I'm willing to go staggered the 03+ SL55 AMG wheels could work. The previous owner had powdercoated these a smokey gray which is even more understated. I must say it fills fenders nicely!
