I know wheel selections is very personal. Looking for some opinions keeping in mind what my personal taste and original goal was.
In order from top to bottom are Lexani, Petrol, A24, A22
The Lexani wheels have been my dream wheels since 2018, but for multiple reasons, I cannot get them for my car. I love the look, design, and uniqueness of the machine tip wheels
With that ^ in mind, my second choice was the Petrol, because it's still has a machined element and is still very unique. My closest car buddy is like no way that's SUV wheels, but on Audiocity I think they look great on those Mercedes
If I don't do machined, then I want all black. The A24 and A22 are the ones I narrowed down with my wheel guy from hundreds. Similar, but the A24 is more design-y and unique, which I like, but my wheel guys likes the A22.
Frankly , none of these look as nice as OEMs but among those wheels I would pick the #1 top one
Thanks but if I liked the OEMs I would keep the OEMs. I hate the OEMs, hence why this post exists. And the first ones are the only ones I can't do lol. So I have to choose from all options except that one.
Try requesting TUV certificate on the wheel you want.
Wheel = your safety. Always start there.
Shape color design, that is personal, choose what you want as wheel is Beauty in The Eye of The Beholder.
That works is already done. Have gone through hundreds. This post was written with the assumption that my question is the only thing I'm looking for, otherwise I would have expanded my question. But since I didn't, I don't need more info then what I asked for
I might stick with the stock 18" size, like the Lexani's, personal choice I guess with the others, not an all black wheel fan but the Petrol is not bad, I might buy five though, as you'll likely need it

That's what happens when you have a cold and have been taking NyQuil. My question was valid, but the "I'm too sexy..." video was childish.
I'll be good!
To the OP, what message do you want to send? When you start changing the appearance of a car with such timeless beauty, not everyone is going to think it's an improvement. If you really want black wheels, I think there are some that Mercedes puts on their cars. I'll try to find a pic.

For that car, the gloss tire is too much. A flat dark color would be better, allowing the body lines to lead the appearance parade. Some kind of subdued, or flat dark color.

What wheels should I get?
