New wheels

I got the opportunity to try out the first set of Modulare M11 forged monoblock wheels for the C63. This set is in brushed finish 19"x8.5" front and 19"x9.5" rear. What do you think of the look?

I like it, my only issue is the spokes look a little too "chunky". Last pic looks great though with the drop. Any rubbing issues with these? I know the Forgestars were a nightmare.

Since you asked- Id rate it a 7/10. Its just so plain and stock (e55'ish) looking which may appeal to some... not to me though.

Id love to see them in black!

No rubbing at all and the fitment was spot on.

As this is the first set of these made, they were done in the brushed finish. I'm sure they will be offered in a variety of finishes like black, gunmetal, etc.

I like them. Did you ever get any weights of the rims compared to the stock ones?

They did not weigh them prior to mounting the tires, but estimated weight is 23 -24 lbs based on what I was told.

I love them! They look sick with your stance. Understated and stylish!

To be honest...i think the Forgestars looked more aggressive on your car
