i have a white CLS55 lowered with the 360 straight 5. i can tell u that the pics dont do it justice. it is truly an unbelievable looking wheel on our car. i get people stopping nearly everyday and wanting to take photos, telling me its one of the nicest cars they have seen. imho - 360 straight 5 is perfect for CLS.
as far as 360 - they finished my wheels during this whole fiasco that everyone is talking about. it took 4 months total but i believe they are much faster now. deal with ALAIN (owner) and tell him aaron from palm beach said to call. they have gotten better. i have had a couple issues since i bought them and they took care of it ASAP and always get back to me. play at your own risk - but if i had it to do over again i would definitely not hesitate. the only difference is i can drive to the shop and raise bloody hell if i need to.

hey guys,
i can understand everyones concerns and know it'll take some time before we regain trust within the forum community. just want to reassure everyone we are for real. we're not the same staff & operation as before. we also take all forms of payments including credit cards. if we do not deliver as promised you can easily charge back the transaction. thanks, alain

Took care of it myself. Knowing them I probably won't see the wheels for months and plus shipping and all that is not worth the headache and money that I will save. I had them done locally and paid for it. Will posted some pictures when I get my front lip. BTW...your car look great with the COR. Mine is the same but with rivets and it is 11" on the rear.
Im 11" out back as well
im noticing some possible trouble spots on the front passenger side around the lug holes. My wheels were purchased in June 2008 always washed with nothing more than soap and water.

k guys, after much deliberation, i've decided on the straight 5ive. I spoke to Alain a few times now and i'm not really worried, he assured me everything will be fine and I believe that. I'm going to give him a deposit and we will go from there.
What do you guys think, a full face of rivets, or 20 like in the pics I posted on the previous page?

Too late, I have yet to read about any issues with the new owners. I'm not worried, i'll keep everyone posted Paid $1000 deposit on my CC and should have them in about 4 weeks. Matte black inner barrels with chrome lip brushed face. 4.5" lip rear.
