Hey guys,
So I've been thinking about rims a lot lately and I finally got around to go check some out but I'm not 100% what works best for my car. So I thought I'd post a poll up on here. They are all going to be 19"
I think it's just a sense of build. Why have three parts that can mess up rather than one?
I'm debating if I get the amg rims to black them out
Because it's stronger and lighter, which is essentially what you want out of a wheel. Plus, if one out of the three part gets messed up, that part can be replaced. Whereas on a monoblock, if it gets messed up, you gotta replace the whole wheel. So, to me, that logic doesn't really make sense either, just saying.

I can see where that makes sense but everyone is different. I just prefer to have it just one peice. Gun example, stamped receiver vs milled receiver; milled receiver have a much better life compared to a stamped one. So to me, it flows into my cars as well.
#3 just looks like AMG rims. imo, if you are looking to personalise your car so it stands out from the pack, AMG is not the style to go for. You will look like a (pretend) c63
I can help you out with the AMG look. Bought these from my neighbor the other day, couldn't pass up the price. They are take offs from his CLA 45. Of course they are 18"s so your result might be a little different with 19"s.
Id go with # 1 and then a drop, match your grill black out the accents and trims. ;perfection
My grill is already blacked out. And most of my trim is blacked out.
I'm thinking about the AMG ones but soo many people have them already. Kind of debating getting the AMG and then getting them matte black. Or just get #1

I think it depends on what look you are trying to go for. If you want the cleanest OEM look you should go with the AMG. If you want to switch up but keep it classy then # 2 and #1 seems more like a blacked out look
