Chrome or silver wheels
I have a 2005 silver C320 4 matic. I have decided on the ASA 17" wheels that look like the AMG style. My final decision before I order is silver wheels or chrome? What does everyone think would look the best? I want the car to look good and sporty, but not to ghetto.

Im a chrome guy, so thats my vote, but if you are looking for more sport than flash, silver may be the way to go.

Chrome it up buddy, it makes your car look classy especially that style. If it were another style, I would say no, but that classic amg style in chrome is timeless.

17 is too small. Go for 18. It will make the car a LOT nicer. My vote goes to silver. The only good-looking chrome rims I've seen are Carlsson Ultra-lights.

Simply said: they offer the highest quality you can get for your money!

You're right, they aren't chrome. Only"chrome-looking". It was carelessness on my part. Let me rephrase my point:
The only "chrome-looking" wheels that look good are Carlsson Ultra-lights. And they aren't even chrome! Hence, as I originally said, go with silver

I need to find silver or dark grey caliper paint. I went to Pep Boys and they didnt have any. They had a spray can, but i wanted the brush on G2 kit.
