Those wheels are awesome...there is just something about them. They look way hot, I would love to have those on my car...but I'll stay with the 2005 sport rims for now, those wheels would probably cost an arm and a leg! thanks for the pix...I have never seen those wheels on a C class before.

I have these in a staggered set (18s) on my car. originally I was hoping to get some HREs but ended up finding a sweet deal from a guy on eBay who was selling his C to upgrade to an E. I personally love the wheels and have been very happy with them.

I actually like those wheels. They're pretty cool, I think the older amg 5 spokes were better (I don't like the center of these), but they're still nice wheels.

They are nice looking, but ok. I still say the best looking wheels MB ever made in my opinion were the classic monoblocks. Deep dish, nice full rim, classic, yet aggressive. These new ones look niceand original though, but the ones on the new 05 c230k ss also look better eventhough they are not amg. You have people buying amg vehicles and either asking for these rims or buying them afterwards and selling their double spoke amg's . Amazing!
