Name that wheel

Does anyone know what kind of wheel is on this C?



If I am going with 19*8.5 and 19*9.5 what is the offset?

Thanks

Hyper silver terminology is normally used by one piece companies and basically refers to silver paint. Brushed aluminum is a 3step process that yields a lusterous silver finish (as seen on the CLS) its a excellent alternative to chrome.

Here is a pic of a E55 with AUTO-COUTURE LATIVE wheels in silver (powdercoat finished for durability)




Here is the same car with Brushed Aluminum AUTO-COUTURE MAGNIFIQUES

Its a OEM color, however I think the indoor lighting and the wood flooring make it appear "softer". The car was such a sight, very clean and classy, yet aggressive! :

We can certainly provide the wheels for you guys. The turnaround time is about a week based on components stock.

We were going to do a introductory special on these wheels as well as a few other Forged Multipiece lines that we carry, do you guys think there would be sufficient interest?

I have just been waiting for the site admins to get our media and official announcement loaded.

Point of clarification, the wheels on the white CLS are BRUSHED ALUMINUM WITH CHROME LIPS (not flat silver with hi-polished)

AUTO-COUTURE is a JDM company however the wheels are 3pc FORGED and assembled here in America

I am thinking of getting 19x10 in the back, but I am not sure if it will work

What is the recommended size tires for 19x8.5 and 19x9.5?

Thanks

You can order any offset that you want if you are going to buy a new one. But mine the offsets are 36 all around.
