Thanks. I can't wait to see how it will look myself. The suspense is driving me crazy.

I had the ride dropped this summer with the H&R Sport Cup Kit.

From who and where? I would only need the wheels so the price is probably a lot cheaper without PZERO'S.

Please click on this link and look at how sick these wheels look with extreme fitments on the top page on the CL500. I think I really want these wheels but in silver or brushed. I have a strong feeling I can achieve this extreme look with my ride since my fenders are all pulled and rolled. This will be my 5th set of wheels now but I can't help the feeling in my stomach. I've never had this kind of design. And at a reasonable price now I think I'll do it because I've always liked the Kleeman's wheels but I was quoted almost $8K before.

Where and who did you purchase these from?

My sudden urge to buy these wheels has come and gone. I just spoke with some dealers here in the USA and the prices suck and so does the wait time and shipping ( 3 months or more by boat and $150 per wheel by air plus stupid prices for the wheels themselves ). It would be cheaper to just buy some Iforged wheels and wait a month and pick them up from Iforged myself here in SOCAL. I still like them but not as much now.

OK I just woke up. It is 8am Sat here in Japan. Looks like rain again so I better hurry up and wash the ride and take pictures.

There rims are made upon order here in Japan by WEDS. They typically say that it takes 3 months to make but I got mine in 2 weeks.

The best and cheapest place to get them from is Fuji Corporation.

FUJI CORPORATION -- Contact English

FUJI CORPORATION -- Order English

No one here in Japan can beat their prices.

I went out there today and the price quote for just the rims is $2600 and $500 for Air Shipment to Chicago.

OR

You can also try contacting the manufacturer directly at

My receipt listed the rims and tires as one price. :bowdown:

and this is what gave me the idea.

I like that one b/c it shows your headlights and a sporty downward pointing shot of the clk. The wheels show how deep they are and it shows how shiny the chrome wheels are w/ the matching headlights and grille. It also looks lower in that one b/c the camera is taking the shot from up higher rather than down lower
