Yes my banker didn't like it much, but my dealer did (bought all three within 5 months from the same sales guy).

These cars' brakes produce almost no brake dust.

I found that to be true with 550, after about 5 or 6 K miles,
but this 63 has more dust than Montana....
hoping it'll settle down soon....already have about 700 miles on it in 10 days

I'd say a Rennen M9 or C10 or the COR or 360 forged concave 10's. I'd go with a 19 for sure.

Guys thanks for the compliments.

hyperion667, our CV3 doesn't have rivets but it is currently 20" only, 19"s are a very strong possibility to come given the great response from people.




We also will have 19" CV1 coming very very soon if you are interested in this style.

As you can see we have plenty of pics in the gallery with the W212 with most of our wheels. Tons of pics.

Good luck with your purchase!

Gsc, maybe a vendor can help out here with a GB? I'll look into it for you all.

Thanks a lot, I honestly think the 20s will look PERFECT with the W212 size/style.

You are very welcome, just let me know if I can assist in anyway.

I have the forged 360's. Yea I'm not really a fan of the rivets, and yes they are hard to clean cause I have them on another vehicle.

I'm not a big fan of the multi (i.e., more than 5) spoke wheels. I prefer the AMG style wheels. I plan to use my stock rims for the winter and put these on for the summer.

I actually got some AMG reps from www.oemwheelsplus.com. They seemed to have a few more positive reviews than USA.....I'm happy with my set.

Really? My wheels are covered in dust - I have to wash them every weekend to keep them clean.
