Need advice on 19" wheels...

I currently own a 01 CL55 with the stock 18's and have winter/snow Dunlops on them right now. I want to buy a set of 19's with Michelin PS2's for the summer and keep my stock wheels for winter driving.

Can you suggest a 19" wheel setup that looks good on our cars that will only cost me about $3,000 or so with Michelin PS2's? I don't want chrome wheels and I want something with a lip. I am currently leaning towards TSW Bremmas unless you guys have a better suggestions.

Thanks in advance for the advice.
Pete

Hi Pete,

I've got 19" AMG wheels (5 spoke). I think they look great. They've got 245/40/19 ZR's on the front and 275/35/19 ZR's. To be honest, I was planning to go for bigger wheels and tyres myself until I saw the prices! My guess is AMG wheels might be expensive - but you can always try and go for a cheaper tyre? Michelin's always tend to be expensive and there are plenty of other high profile tyres out there..!

Youre going to be hard pressed to find a set of wheels good enough on the CL with any decent size lip, for $3k with tires. A decent set of wheels for about $3k is possible.
