Something Slow
Renntechs with some CLK63 6pot/4pot BBK and you would be set!

I dont really like the monolites.
Im looking the Rotiforms models and i think the Forged 3 piece Concave BLQ are so damn cool!
Maybe someone with some photoshop skills could help.

The proportions of your car's rear fender gives a lot of visual height over the rear wheel... and a deep-lipped rim can actually appear smaller than it is (at a glance). Honestly I'd consider a nice concave wheel (think Forgestar F14, CF5, etc) that allows the spokes to extend out to the rim lip. This will preserve the wheel's visual impact (the 18 will still look like an 18) which would compliment the car's big hips quite nicely.
Just something else to consider...

You are 100% right about the big hip.
I will take in consideration the Forgestar wheels.

What offset's are you running and what year / car did your 18's come off of?

My rims came with the car as OEM rims.
AMG Leichtmetallrader Styling IV, Mehrteilig.
----------------------------------------------------
Front: 8.5J X 18 ET30
Rear: 8.5J X 18 ET18
I will stay in 18 inches is the bigger i can go with the Peruvian roads.
I also own another set of AMG Monoblocks II but that set is going for the 190E 2.3. 16V Cosworth that im restoring.
