Oh yeah, you are a wheel freak ***** **** etc

I developed those offsets with HRE on my CLS back in late 2011.

I kept thinking the bronzes were the golds on me.

Either way your car looks sick(so jealous), but I am liking the black more. The gold is definitely original and race ready looking, and I know everyone has black wheels now a days, but the black is mean on your car. Cars perfect
