Your monoblocks CLKfanDB
OK, I have a 430 and have the opportunity to get Kleemann 18"x8.5 front and 18"x9.0 rear at a similar price to AMG Monoblocks. However. I doo like the chunky look of the AMG's and can't decide what to get
CLKfanDB, have you got a side on pic of your car?
Might help me decide!
What do you think guys? AMG Mono's style II or Kleemann 5 spokes similar to these 19" ones in this picture of a W209.
Please help me decide

I personally like the AMG's better.
IMO, the chunky look of the AMG's appeal to me more...these Kleemann rims look too complicated, the AMG's are simple and clean.

AMG v. Kleemans
Big mistake fudger!! You are comparing apples with oranges when you try to compare wheels on a w208 and w209. Don't forget that the 208 has a more musculer and aggressive appeal; therefore the "clean" look of the AMG's work well. As opposed to the 209 which is very "sleek" and "feminine" (no pun intended ladies) It needs something to make it more aggressive, therefore the Kleemans look better on the 209's.
Personally, I would go for the AMG's. The Kleeman's on a 208 will definately look too busy!! My 2cents !!! Dont spend it all in one place !!

Your absolutely right of course. The W209 is a different car and much more feminine. The AMG's, as you sad, seem to go well with the W208 which is why I favour them too.
The reason for my indecision was purely cost as I can get the Kleemanns for the same price as the AMG's through a friend as a one off special favour. Next week the offer won't be there.
I do wonder of the 19" AMG's are too big for the W208! My head tells me to get 18's my heart the 19's.
Stop it........must go 18"

18" v. 19"
Good decision!! I replaced my stock 17" AMG's with 18" OZs. The advice I got from the "wheel & tire" forum (or what ever that forum is called) was to stay away from 19's. Big problem with front rubbing. Unless you are ready to do a lot of adjustements.
Enjoy you AMGs !!!

Thanks for the comments. They are clear brake lights, not clear tail lights. The trophy's are from import car shows I go to. That picture was taken about a year ago. It was my first show and I got those tropy's. One for Best Euro Concept and the other for Best Mobile Entertainment.
heres mine
