C-Class Owners Led Me Your Ears! or.. EYES!

So I'm getting my white on black C-350 in the next couple days. I've ordered a stereo system, JL 12W7 and JL 1000/1 Amp. I also plan on blacking out my orange side markers and the silver part of the front grill. Tints will also be one of the first things I do. Now I need your help with wheels! I'm going to get iForged wheels, but here comes my dilemma, which one???

The three I'm really interested in is the Daytona's, the Rev, and the Monaco. Whichever one I get will have a gloss black center with a chrome lip. I'm going all out with the white/black theme. I know its a personal choice in wheels but a little help wont hurt! Which wheels do you guys think would look best. Ill show some pics of the wheels. The first two are the Daytona's, the next two is the Rev's, and the last two are the Monaco's.

Thanks for the help!

I'd suggest getting Hyper black for the center instead of glossy.

Out of those I'd say Rev or Limited. Is HRE out of the question?

Glossy black looked too plastic-y to me, but that's just my opinion. Hyper black isn't listed as an option on their website now, so just wanted you to be aware they had that as an option. I just ordered a set of IForged myself last week

And yes, if you can afford it, get HREs. I kinda wish I did, but it's just so damn expensive.

Yeah I'm actually starting to like the hyper black. I'm leaning towards the Rev's as of now but things could change in the next some hours.. so confused lol

As regard to the HRE's, I wish I had the money. My last car had a set of HRE 441's. Plus I'm getting a really good price on some new iForged

Looks great.

I was looking at the prices of Iforged and HREs, you must be getting a really good deal on the Iforged because the HREs are not THAT much more expensive...but either way I think those wheels in the photoshop look pretty good.

There were a couple group buys/sales for IForged and HRE not that long ago and I got a quote for both and turned out the IForged were 2K less than the HRE. Big enough difference in my books for me to get the IForged instead. OP might have even gotten in on the same deals I did. If they were the same price, no doubt, HRE ftw.

The car looks beautiful with the Rev's on it. I think I'm going to go with them Rev's. On my last car I had HRE 441's and they are similar to the style of the daytonas so I think I'll switch it up. Now the question is, gloss center or hyper black...hmmm
