Matte White 63 AMG

Whats up guys i'm new to this site, I wrapped my 63 matte white and i wanna get a really nice set of wheels, any suggestions?

I like the Work T1S"s with a step lip if someone has that setup please post pictures.

Here's a pic of my car after it got wrapped and I plan on doing a lot more.

Mods:
-Painted Headlights and tail lights by 180 Custom
- Carbon Fiber wrapped interior.

Love white CLS's, but not a fan of matte anything. But, if you like it thats all that matters.

What kind of car care does the wrap require? what happens with rock chips etc?

Wow! 4K for wrapping? I had no idea wrapping cost that much!

I've never seen that ART Kit in person. I bought some ART headlights for my ML 5 years ago and I did not like the quality of that product at all!

How much does that kit cost?

your stock wheels are beautiful! but, there are lots of options out there.

I fell in love with 360 wheels, but not the service.

I know what you mean. I had lownharts and they were horrid. I bought these 360 style wheels directly from COR, the company that makes them. They are very strong, and they do not shake at all.

+1. I talked to a couple companies that both used the avery wrap. one quote was 1200 for a cheapie, 2k for being detailed, and some other company quoted 3500 or something stupid.

Guess i shouldn't have told them what kind of car it was.

The first company I got a quote from(and prob the only company that would do it in the area) wanted to charge about $3000 for the whole thing..doorjams and all. When I said I might as well throw in a couple extra g's and get it painted they dropped down price to like $1750..but with tax it would have ran $2000+ anyway.

The thing that confused me was that the high standard vinyl material(avery) that they were using..I could get retail for $400(wholesale even cheaper) for my whole car..so its like they charging me $150 an hr for labor.
