Haha thanks, but I'm nobody's Junior. And I can't match up with what Vic does. I may have a Picasso but he has an entire rare art gallery.

Thanks Vic, coming from a person who has some of the sickest rides out there, your compliments mean a lot.

Actually this is a misnomer. The truth is, people who mod their cars and post pics of wheels are where you will mostly see black wheels. Most CLS's out there do not have black wheels. Its just that we get polluted with all the pics of modded cars and thus we assume black wheels are the norm. I for one, am still a fan of black wheels even though I went gunmetal on my Klassen set up.

that's a good point; you are the big brother of cars
true we see a lot here in the forums....and I have never even seen another
CLS63 in my neck, although I know a second was delivered when mine was last year, and my wife claims to have spotted it too.....I never get to see them! LOL, I'd love to see them in person while out driving....
