Help... opinion on wheels/offset

I've been bothered by the offset of these AMG wheels since installing them on my 07 E350. I was able to buy them at a great price ($800.00) including new Pirelli tires and thats part of the reason I don't want to give up on them.
Aside from the offset, I'm wondering if these wheels are starting to look dated for a 2007? opinions please.

FWIW, I like 'em! Know nothing about offsets though. I'm searching for the AMG wheels that come on the Saks E350 but, non-staggered for our 4matic

If you like 'em, keep 'em. They're a classic design, however there are more current AMG five-spokes (those on the E-class Saks Edition and those on the E63, for instance). Personally, the offset would drive me nuts...
