Ok just trying to decide on a wheel to get. I've set a budget for myself and it looks like when all is said and done, I will have gone over it by quite a bit.

So... here are some wheels I'm kinda set on. Don't really want to spend more than $3k on wheels + tires.

#1 - I like these, but seems most tell me to choose #2 over this one.


#2 - nice looking, but damn it, every Joe, Dick, and Harry has them.


#3 - seems nice, but since there are no replicas, I'd have to buy the real thing, which means more $$.
Here's a link to more pics of this wheel:

I've always like 5 spokes....ever since I put Crager SS's on my race car...

Oggle,

I suggested #2. I'm with lhoang(sp?) here and also got those myself. You can get them as replicas. They are good quality IMHO. That leaves you extra for tires and / or other mods you may want in the future.

Number Two! They look Great!

I See you are shopping at the The Wheel Supply
Great Prices Great service!

Get #2, they look great on a black car

and don't worry, every every Joe, Dick, and Harry doesn't have them. Joe, Dick, and Harry have replicas

i haven't actually seen all that many *real* brabus vi's... most cars i've seen have the replicas which are look ok i guess, but personally i wouldn't put replicas on a mb. i guess i have this association of replica wheels with ricer cars, sorta cheapens the car imho... i vote for real brabus vi's, but then that'd probably be more than what you want to spend.

I like number one but it looks like I may be in the minority. I also like number 2 but I do not like the tint on that car, which is why I may not like those wheels as much. Number 3 I can not see well enough to judge. What size are you going to get 18"?

I like them all, but I voted for number 1, looks like I'm alone so far. There are nice even though that front one looks huge in that picture.

Number 2 I like even though I usually hate an even number of spokes. But if a lot of people in your area have them, then I wouldn't get them.

Number 3 looks nice as well, but not a good enough shot to see how they really look.

I like #2 as well, but I too could do without the mirror tint! Looks more at home to me on a beat up old Nissan Altima with a giant double wing than on a beautiful Benz! =)

Dropped by CEC Wheels today and saw the RS6 (#3) on an E class. I have to say, they look GREAT on them. Also saw a #1 there, but it was only 18 inch and was dirty.

Btw, the #3 on the E class was 19 inch and the #1 on the C coupe was 18 inch. Damn wheels sure look much better when they're 19!

If you can afford them, get the multipiece Brabus Monoblock VI wheels. Even if you don't get multipiece, the one piece Monoblocks are still pretty clean and a hell lot cheaper.

Found the following pics of C class with RS6's (#3) on them:

Wow, those #3's look good on black. Your car is black, right? I'm changing my vote to #3. It sounds like you like them too since you've been looking at all these other pictures. I say get them.

i voted for # 1

but im starting to like 3 more


id say get 1 or 3

TimmyC230boy

Oggle: can I ask what your budget is? renntech has some nice packages for sale now.

I vote for #2.

CarlssonCRS

Dont get #2.... cuz i have #2... then more poeple will have #2

true that most people who have #2 are replicas... you said that your budget is $3k... the #2 rims + tires cost a bit over 5Gs... if you want the MB VI for 3k, you would have to buy them in 18 and one piece.

oggle

Too late. Already got number 3.
