Looks good from from this angle. I think color/offset will have a lot to do with it.

What did you do to it? Zaino'd it including wheels prior to takin' pics?

That looks pretty good. I'm using the stock coupe wheels this winter. But I may give those to a friend with a C240 to use year-round if he likes them better. Then I will use his wheels in the winter. I was kinda wondering how it would look. Not bad. At least not worse than the 16" coupe wheels. I'm ready to go back to C7 though.

E-bay still has Mercedes Benz rims for sale cheap. Some are brand new. When I have some extra $$ I am going to get a set.

No, it not photoshopped. And I think that these rims look pretty good on the coupe - same as on a sedan. I like them better than the stock 16" coupe rims.

No, just washed Really But the wheels are new, just received them 2 days ago and mounted the tires a couple of hours before taking this picture.
It must be the light - evening time, the sky in the background was pink - I wish I could post it as well, but had to cut off due to a pic size limitation. Also, obsidian black shines better than pure black - the camera must have caught one of those moments when it really shows itself.
