I like these 18" wheels for under $500 (or $700 in chrome).

Man, that is a really nice lip on the wheel. Is it lightweight???

I really like the LORINSER LM5's, along with the BRABUS Monoblock VI, but that's just my opinion

Regardless, the wheel looks great!!

I believed those are '03 S-class options wheels. I've seen the real thing on 2 S-class recently, they look nice! But offset doesnt fit a C.

If you're into those kind of styles, maybe you should consider HREs. You should treat yourself with a set of really NICE wheels for a C32!!

They were the standard wheel for the 02 SL silver arrow edition, except with a chrome lip. They are very nice looking. This is the same style. I have seen them on CL's before, but not an S yet. I like them.

Brabus monoblock IV will suit it perfectly.
