One-piece / Two-piece wheels...
I just wanted some peoples' opinions on what they thought was better. One-piece or two-piece wheels? What's the difference besides strength and price? Is it worth it? In particularly, I'm referring to the Brabus Monoblock V (one or two piece) on a C 240 2002.

on a 2 pcs, if you damaged your wheels bad, you might be able to just buy the busted piece instead of buying a whole new wheel.

It is mostly about looks, do you like the look of a bunch of little bolts on your wheels? If yes, get the 2-piece.

People have told me the strength on the 1 piece is stronger. Also, when there is bolts it makes the wheel look smaller.
