Just wanting some last minute feedback before I place the order![thumbs](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)

All wheels will be brushed face with chrome lip. 20"
Also, I am aware of the problems that people have had with the old management of 360, i'm not too concerned about that.

CLS55 plus a few Ducati's
All the wheels are beautiful but I would not buy from 360 unless I had both money in reserve until I received the wheels and a means of claiming back if they fail to deliver. Good luck

I've put some sort of 5 star rim on avery car I've owned. I don't have a cls but if I did I think I would do a multi spoke like Full Throttle has. The five star for some reason doesn't seem to fit the cls as well. The stocks look fine I think because they are a thick spoke. Obviously it is your car get what you like. Post pics when you get them!

i would stay clear of forgiatos. the quality is not that great. if i was you i would go with the 360 forged concave 5ive. im dying to see a set of those on a cls. plus the cls has a low offset so you can get a deep concave
#10
Of the choices I will go with 360 Straight 5ive. FYI...their clear coat sucks. I just had mine redone. I have 360 MultiSpec 10 with Rivets on my CLS. Mine is Diamond White. If you decide to go with 360...look at their Concave...looks very good.Will take picture once I get my front lip.

Just me, but I wouldn't patronize....
any business who had treated customers they way they have. You don't have to email me and tell me all the stuff, I've read it. Old customers were still taken advantage of. There are lots of other great options out there from plenty reputable sellers. OK, flame suit on.

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.

@ the OP, have you considered Vossen? I have not heard of any issues from them, and I have some Vossen's which I am very pleased with.
BTW- Vossen has a concave rim as well.

Great to see your sticking with 5 spokes, goes best with the body lines imo.
+1 for the 360 Spec 5ive! One reason, they look really light, lower rotating mass and unsprung weight FTW. Whatever you choose will look awesome though, all great looking wheels.
BTW where the hell has your 55 been? havnt seen it in your driveway for ages?!

CLS55 & CL CK60
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.

I think those D2's on that SL...
look great. Finish is not my virst choice, but still really sharp. Hey Beau, could we see some pix of your car?
