Brabus Monoblock VI silver vs. Lowenhart BR5s Chrome

I found a couple good deals on both wheels, but I wanted to get some opinions from fellow CLK owners. Which one should I go with? Thanks guys!

Brabus MBVI really seems to be most popular/common wheel though. You see it everywhere on the internet and car sites. It's getting old because of that. Also, I was under the impression that they're very heavy.

All Lowenhart wheels require adding spacers to the front, which I usually dont suggest. Yes, Brabus is one of the most popular wheel. However, it is very heavy.

There are lots of choices, but the most important question is: how much are you planning to spend? It varies from $3K to $9K.

I like the Kleeman wheels above on Frisco CLK. And those are supposed to be very lightweight. Also, these are nice:

Yes, the Kleemann TS-6 is one of the lightest 19" multi-piece wheel in the market.

The other thread is the BBS LM by Inden Design.

Kim, have you received my update on your wheels?

I have Mono VI and its great. I think Mono VI fits most MB cars just fine. My suggestion if money isn't an issue is HRE 547R or 840R

HREs?

Going to Vegas tonight for the Billboard Music Awards on Wednesday. If I get lucky, I might win enough to pay for the HREs. Wish me good luck.
