HELLP, I need Wheels and Fast

I've been searching the entire net trying to figure out what wheels to get for my '05 e320.. I really want to uprgrade my wheels as soon as possible, and I'm stumped... i would prefer going with 18" AMGs, ive found replicas (which i dont trust for a minute)... any pics, advice, and styles would be greatly appreciated...thanks!

You may also consider CLS 18" wheels. CLS is on the same frame although the wheels as about 1/2" wider and thus a wider stance and thus push outward flush to the fender lip.

Have you looked through the classifieds in this forum? A lot of great deals... especially for AMG factory take-offs. There are some S55 AMG take-offs for sale right now for $500 with tires (not sure if they would fit... just illustrating my point).

Yeah the cls55 5-spoke AMGs are sick, maybe the nicest i've seen which are not too bulky and keep the car classy.. what do u guys think of Moven's? Are they legitimate aftermarket wheels or just like the rest of the aftermarket quality? Ive seen 19's that look like the CLS55s made by them, a) would they fit without rubbing, and b) would they even look good considering im not looking at lowering my car...

Too expensive, especially when u consider the fact that I can get OEM AMGs for cheaper than those forged brands.
