need advice on high quality 1 piece rims

I have a 2007 CLS63 with 20" HRE 897's, and I'm ready to make a change. I'm looking for high quality 1 piece wheels. I want something strong, safe, reliable, and able to clear the big AMG brakes. No replicas, soft wheels, anything suspect, etc. Also, my car is lowered (not slammed) via Renntech lowering module.

Anybody out there really happy with what they have and can make a recommnendation?

DPE is the way to gooo
might wanna check out DPE MT5 or MTR10
IMO these two are the best 1 piece wheels by DPE

I thought I just saw a thread on this forum about this set of refinished HREs that are two-pieces design.

Our HRE P40SC Series is very popular. They are also very lightweight. Please email me directly at LonM@hrewheels.com with any questions.

HRE no doubt--- 13 sets later....

Quality
Form
Function


or in English:

Light
Strong
Well made
Great Looking

the monobloks in the SC format (conical in nature) are the best ones out there......

What do you guys think of Modulare Wheels?

I was thinking about these and saw the White Bentley in person in this gallery and these look amazing too!! I also love HRE and have narrowed it down to the P40SC and the Modulare B18

http://www.modularewheels.com/gallery/?wheelName=B18

PS: I am not sure if I am allowed to post a link like this but it is on topic so not sure. If I am not allowed to then I apologize and will remove.

I'm glad that you did. While I've enjoyed my HRE wheels, its hard to believe that nobody is recommending anything else other than DPE. I was hoping for feedback on more options to consider. While it's not urgent that I make the change, it is something that I wanted to do soon.

We would suggest either HRE or Modulare Forged...Both are superior to none.

Quality
Craftsmanship
Weight
Styling

Thank you

The all-new C99S (15 spoke) might be a really cool option for 3pc.
