Joining the club!

Hey Guys
I'll be joining the cls gang soon.I pick mine up on sat. Cls 63
I went with white.
Already out there looking for rims.
What do you guys think of chrome rims? Played out?
I kinda like these? Or should I go white? I'm so bad at making up my mind.



Any Thoughts? Or pics of white/white?
Thanks
Paul M

My friend used to have a white 55 dumped on chrome Maya's. I though that car was alot cleaner than my Black on Black on Black rim, slammed 55. If those are the 1 piece Sevas, I would stay away from those rims. Do a search on this forum, along with the BMW, Lexus and Avura forums. There are alot of Sevas haters out there. Invest the money on some nice 3-piece forged rims.

360 FORGED
This is how you do a white 63...PM for pricing if you're interested.
http://www.360forged.com

The Sevas wheels are nice though, just giving you another option.
Special pricing for MBworld.org members. Chrome or white is also available.

Welcome. I think you should do white rims. Search Slang500 for pics of White HRE rims.

Congrats on the car, go with H.R.E.'s ..., the car deserves them..The 360 forged wheels are nice but cant compare them with H.R.E.'s .........Its almost like buying a cheap hooker that you've never heard of, or a quality ho thats real famous and knows how to do her job, all for almost the same MONEY>>>>
