Talking BLACKENED stock wheels for w212

Finally got around to having these done up in satin black, powder coated....
I am LOVING this look, never had black wheels before and really like these.
Only paid 400 to have them done.......they are stock AMG 18" wheels that came on my E550,
the finish is very nice and not matte, and not gloss.......they're friggin' perfect....
car is filthy of course, lol, but the wheels are really nice IMO,
comments welcome.....

stay well and happy new year

I normally prefer chrome rims but yours are so sweet
I think it's worth every cent you spent on these cool things

Nice! They did a great job. I prefer the Mandrus but these fit perfect with the black.

thanx KA, the painter also said satin wouldn't 'show' as many blemishes too, as opposed to gloss or matte

Looks awesome Hype. Now just take that chrome strip off the side and throw some spacers on those wheels to get them out a little further... That finish is sick, great job on picking the satin. Nice rose bush too...lol

I'm not normally a fan of black wheels either, looks like the hubcaps fell off to me, yet those look pretty good. But holy mother of God, wash that car! :-)

Nice wheels! I was thinking about doing the same when I got curb rash on three of my stock wheels. Did some research and decided to upgrade instead with 19" wheels.

Looks so much better than your previous rim/grille set up.
