Help Me Decide on Some Wheels!
So with summer approaching I will be pulling the trigger on some wheels for my black 2008 CLS550 in a couple of weeks. I have about a 2500 budget for both wheels and tires combined.
I think I'm pretty sure I'm going to jump on some 20"Rohana RC5s
Ive been looking but I'm not really finding what I'm looking for. I think these RC5 offer alot visually. First being concave staggard, then having a chrome lip, a machined face and a touch of black. All of which I was looking for. I love the concave machine face look. The rivets don't look so bad either. All for a decent price.

My dream wheels are the DPE SC7 or SC5 v2 but they are way to pricey at the moment.
If you guys have any ideas please chime in, pictures are of course appreciated.

I'm in the same boat as you, just got my CLS, trying to figure out the wheel situation. Those wheels you posted are nice, and quite reasonably priced.
These might be a bit more expensive, but still have the concave design:
Incurve IC5
Vossen CV3

MSRP for 20" Staggered is around $2500, dealer pricing will be better. Here are some CLS example below with our wheels. We also have a class leading 5 year warranty! Good luck with your choice.

It sucks that vertini casts their name into the wheel. When I bought wheels, that is the one thing that kept me from buying their brand. I chose the Roderick Ruleta with a black lip instead.

MRR has the Eurotek UO6 that is very similar to the Vertini in different finishes and no engraving, here's a link:

RC10's aren't out yet but they are taking back orders. 305/25-20 work no problem on an 11. Hankook makes that size in the V12. We just installed a pair on a twin turbo Lambo at the shop today.

Has anyone ever see these two wheel sets combined? I'm thinking the one with flat face in from and the one with the lip in the rear. Any thoughts? Anybody with pics?
