Best looking wheels I have ever seen!

So, I was relaxing this morning browsing some videos on youtube and I came across an outstanding video documenting a guy taking delivery of a new W205 (with the night package).

Awesome detailed shots of the little things that you don't often see in the majority of the videos out there (along with the seemingly permanent grin cemented on the guys face). Now the video is a bit too long and it is in German so I didn't get the full effect, but at about the 9:30 mark, before he even sees his car there is a walk around of some futuristic Hydrogen cell silver bullet of a car. Amazing car, but the wheels are to DIE for!!!

Even though they probably wouldn't look good on my car, and they are probably too big, I want em, NOW! (not counting the huge crack in the upper right of course)

As I said, the video is excellent as well. If you are curious, here it is:

I cannot understand this black on black hysteria (night package in the clip)


All of the cars accents, and smooth lines and detailing disappears completely, IMO a car needs certain contrasts to look good.

I agree completely. In colours like silver in the sun all the car's details show to best effect.

I think those wheels are absolute ghetto.

Black wheels are a lot nice with a white car in my opinion...

Firstly, anyone that thinks this looks bad does not know what the hell they're talking about.

Secondly, not sure how it'll look after the polish wears off.

Thirdly, I believe the night package also blacks out the chrome tail pipes yet this car seems to have them intact as chrome. This makes me question whether it is indeed equipped with a night package. I could be wrong.

He's since black chromed the exhaust tips. I agree that the lines are lost as a result of the night package.

Oh them wheels... one way to ruin your new ride.

Or, alternatively, they have a different opinion to you. That is allowed, isn't it?

I could have sworn that this is a discussion board, where opposing views are not frowned upon and are actively encouraged.

Perhaps I was wrong.
