Rim Decision
Im trying to decide which rims to get and i have narrowed it down to two types. The TSW Bremma rim or the brabus replica rim. Which one do you guys like better and my only question about the Bremma rim is that the offset is 25mm so would i need a spacer? Thank you in advance.

I would personally go w/ the VI reps. I had a set on my previous 430 and it looked alright.

Any rim will look good...I really really like the brabus style...BUT I cant stand its sooo common and every other MB out here in Socal has these rims, chrome, machined, 2 piece look, and so on....
I see knock offs good and bad, and finally decided to sell a set I had.
Just for me, I can tell a replica rim from a mile away...but again that style is great but its up to you..

I'm assuming you're talking about 19's? I have the Bremmas and really like them. The 25 offset info is not correct - where did you hear that? If you are looking at that eBay auction, ask them to validate the offsets or call a local wheel dealer like Discount Tire (that's where I got mine).
Good luck.

BTW the Brabus reps are nice, but have you noticed that MB is now selling a similar wheel on several of its models - even sometimes with the AMG brand. It you can't beat em, join em!
