To my eye the spokes seem a bit thin in proportion to the car...having said that...it’s a nice looking wheel

you dont think its to "much" for a diesel.

Lets face it, a CDI really isnt sporty, so would putting those rims make me look like something Im not?

I dunno. Maybe I am just looking into this to much..

Those wheels look great but only if you have the 4-pot or the AMG calipers showing through. I'm not sure if the US cars get the 4-pot's like we do and if not then everything might look a bit skinny behind those wheels

CCW are great wheels at an affordale price. A couple of my Vette buddies have them and my friend with a Viper just got the 505A (looks similar to HRE 547s). They have a deep lip and very clean look. I think they're also called Purner Wheels. I almost bought the Classic but instead went with Mallett Wheels.

I am not really a fan of thin spokes wheels. I my eyes they make the car look unfinished....or something missing.

Needless to say, everyone has different tastes.
