Opinion on these wheels on w208
I saw these on Ebay and I think these would look good on W208 CLK.

What do you guys think? They look similar to the new c350 wheels..

The wheels are a hard cut face wheel and would look better on an SLK than a CLK. I recommend sticking to wheels that are rounded face to stay with the cars lines.

What is the color of your whip?
Will the wheels compliment the color of the car?
Do you like them?

Make yourself turn around and look at your car when you walk from it just to see what you've done to our baby.

Actually, now i see that those are split spokes...the e63 wheels look JUST like those but with gunmetal/charcoal cuts down the middle, as opposed to open slits.

I definitely like the ones you're looking at better. I think they'd look great on a w208.

yup, open spokes but at certain angles very close, was just my initial thought before seeing the spoke set-up
