How do you like these wheels?

Just getting some feedback before I seriously consider them. Radenergie f02-they are forged and pretty light weight. Quality wheels for sure and the center caps are fully customizable.

Will putting a time attack stripe be considered Ricey?

Nice looking wheel. Note they won't look that "concave" in the C63 fitment due to our high rear offset requirements.

Agreed, I think those RADs are beautiful but I highly doubt they will have the same look due to our high offset. I would definitely double check with them before you pull the trigger if your going for that deep concave look just to be on the safe side.

They are priced pretty much right around where normal quality wheels such as BBS, Work, Volks and ADV are priced. I don't have an official quote yet. But yeah unfortunately because of the stupid offset issue with the C63 these wont be that concave.

I like the F02..look like work emotions. Just me, but I wouldn't do the time attack stripe or polished lip either. a nice gunmetal all around!

I was wondering where I saw this wheel pattern before... you are correct it does remind me of the work emotions.

Beautiful wheels! But agreed, RAD wheel quality and cutomer support has been sketchy in the past. I had R10s on mine, and while absolutely stunning, the build quailty was less then stellar. Just something to consider.

Where can I find these wheels to purchase? And do they come in any other colors?

You can customize the color to anything that you like, same thing with the finish. These wheels are not out yet I believe I will be one of the 1st ones to have it in a few weeks.

Once I install them and you still want to purchase them I can point you a good shop. Retail is $1395 a piece but of course no one pays retail nowadays. Lead time is 4 weeks.
