What do you think? Any comment is welcome =)
It'll be for a silver c320

Aero


Flux

They will be in Brushed Aluminum, so won't be that shinny.
Thanks
Alan

I'm not too sure, but i thinkits around 700 for 19". Not too bad for 3pc forged rim

Aero in 19", looks really good here
Aero 20" Alittle too thin.

Aero 19" looks alittle thin too.

I'm just worried that Aero might look too thin on my w203, like on the last 2 pics.
can't find any pic with flux 3pc, except the one piece version on a 350z.

Yes they both look too thin. Paper-like almost.

I think I like HRE's better, but Iforged looks pretty good.

I remember seeing somewhere a 7spoke Iforged somewhere.

white and whiter
if it's me, i'd get some 18" AMGs. Iforge and HRE are just too expensive. AMGs weight a little heavier, but AMG does it at a much cheaper price. Without tires, Iforge or HRE can cost minimun of $900 to $1k a piece.

Iforged is around 700 for 18-19", cheaper than HRE. I want to get Iforged because it's less common right now, but it's really hard to decide.

Those wheels pictured in your initial post are VERY nice - I always liked the look of multi-piece wheels. I am assuming that they are, as the bolts around the perimeter seem to be real.

I have similar wheels (multi-piece) I just put on my C320 - they are 18" SSR GT3 with a Renntech 1.5" drop suspension to close the gap.

Yeah, they are 3pc forged from www.iforged.com. Also nice car you got there Synergy, the SSR GT3 match your car really well.
