MB CL65 with Giovanna Wheels and Some Light Mods

Hey everyone, just wanted to share some pics of my CL65 with 22" Giovanna wheels. Since these pics were taken I upgraded to a Quick Silver exhaust system. Still not enough sound for me so I will be getting the resonators removed. Eurocharged ECU/TCU tune on the way. Also have BMC Air filters, and Johnson IC Pump. Sorry about the pic quality, will take some better shots soon.

I appreciate the comments. Honestly, I spent quite a bit of time picking out a set of wheels. I really could not find a set that I liked for this car. These are concave so the rears look pretty sick when you look at them from an angle. I saw a set of concave Vossen wheels but they didn't have them in a 22 so I went with Giovanna which were very similar. I was debating 20's but they are just too small for this car. The pictures don't do it justice, it really looks a lot better in person in my opinion but everyone has their style, some will love it others will hate it. For the most part, I get a big when I'm out on the road.

It's an 07. I picked it up from a collector with 6k miles on it a few months back. Still had the new leather smell . It's my daily driver so I've racked up about 17k miles since then. I love the car, I drive it hard everyday

Thanks! You don't know how many times people pull up to me even at high speeds to get me to roll down the window and tell me they love the car and my wheels, it's insane. I had an Aston Martin before this car and it never got anywhere close to this kind of attention. Most of the time people are pointing at me with their cell phones taking pics others trying to test the V12. Once they look at the side of the car and see that V12 badge I can see the expression in their face change from oh damn to oh shi* LOL.

Those rims are awesome. The CL65 is going to be my next benz and I have always loved the way 5-spoke rims with concave in the rear look on any Mercedes. Props though, the car and rims look great!

Nice Mods, I like the tint on the Brake lits..

2007 though? I thought they went AMG went dark that year for the CL65..
Super rare if it is.

Cool

**** that's a nice ride man!

I think the wheels are okay....they do kind of evoke a Camaro vibe a bit IMO.......would look good with the calipers painted or something......
since you're showing so much down there.....
but sha-zam! that thing is beautiful....and looks like it was a garage queen too eh?

very nice my friend

Not the best wheels in the world, I would've kept the OEM ones or go with HRE but anyways, congrats on the car! Awesome ride buddy! I seriously hope that I'm going to run into you one day in Mia. I would love to have a small race with a CL65 (On speedway blvd or Okeechobee Rd)

Hit me up by PM if you wanna do this! I wanna see how powerful is the V12

IMO the wheels are great...in your 2nd set of pics I can see that the wheel still retains a chrome lip, while still being concave, which is a nice design touch.
