pics! -opinions please-
I'm thinking about buying these wheels and getting this look (and them maybe get it blacked out, all except the wheels)
I like the general look, but I'm not sure because they aren't OEM wheels (they are rondell 85). On the other hand, the original ones (AMG IV 2 pc. I think) aren't so deep dished (look at these 10'' rear wheels!)
What do you think?
Thanks

It's a nice looking wheel on the CLK, not aggressive but noticable. I'm a big fan of black wheels so you have my vote on the color at least

Mine are 19" AMG, came that way here in Dubai, I'm changing them out though to a black face/chrome dish turbine style. I was looking at getting a set exactly like yours and having the gun metal repainted black, but like yours I could only find 18" here and no replicas, aka, big time $$$.

I would go for those rims. They look alot like the OEM rims that were on the mid 2000's AMG models and 2007-2009 CLK550s. Dont paint them black. I wouldnt black out the tailights either, but it's your strictly your decision. (Personally, i just feel it really detracts from the car's classy style and makes the car look more ghetto).
Another thing i would look into would maybe be an AMG body kit? I noticed the car in the pic had AMG-inspired rims but kept the boring standard fenders from the base CLk350.

Fenders? They are the same AMG or not.
