Those are Three piece rims, Worlds away from your Moven wheels
I still think 22s on a CLS is ridiculous, but The rims are much better than yours buddy.

At first, I wasnt sure about the spoiler but it looks fantastic in person. The rear of the car needs something when the body kit is added. The top/rear of the car just looks empty. I test fitted the lip on her and it just didnt do it. The wing is very well contoured and fits the car perfectly. It looks more factory than you might think given that the curves and cuts of the design follows the car to perfection. When I test fit this, The whole staff high fived each other. I mean it was unanimous to go with this wing. I wish you guys could see it on the car in person.
As far as 22's being to big, I would also respectfully disagree. I would think 21's would have also worked well but as you know they are very rare and tires are even more expensive than 22's. The style choices in the 21" range are limited to perhaps three. I personally hate the three spoke Lorinzer 21" design. They remind me of the 80's and Miami Vice and seem totally dated.
Personally I feel 20's are entirely too small for the car. 20's look good in the front of a CLS but in the rear, 20's are just lost. With a kit, 20's are simply swallowed. The car looks like a Japanese ricer with 20's when you add a kit. Just trust me on this one.
All I can say is reserve judgement until you can see one like this in person. pictures dont always accurately reflect the image your eyes get when viewing the car in reality. Imagine the times youve been to a car show and seen a well done car and how it impacted you as opposed to mag shots.
I have taken both the Bentley and the CLS out on weekends to Glammy events. Occasionally, I am lucky enough to valet in front of the event and both cars seem to generate the same amount of buzz! Can you imagine a CLS that attracts conversation? When my CLS was stock I might have gotten a compliment here or there on the color becasue it is so rare. I debadged the car and now people are confused asking is it a new model.
