I would be afraid of putting some high price, very rare rims on my mother's car. I would be afraid of her getting jacked. I would find a nice set at a reasonable price for her. Just my opinion

I am not talking about the cars security, I am talking about your mother's. Lets just say you buy some rims for 10 grand. If you were driving and some thug sees you, he will probably leave you alone for now. But if he sees an innocent old lady, he just pulls up and jacks her. Key is already in the car, drives off and hides the car in a garage. No way to track. Tele-Aid only works with the key in the ignition. Or you just walk outside some morning and the wheels are gone. I like buying expensive wheels, etc, for me, but when it comes to my family's security, it's different. There are a lot of people out there that want what we have, but don't want to work for it. If it was yours, I would say go for it. Put the baddest wheel on and make sure you post the pic. But it's your mom, I would just feel bad if something happened. Just my .02

Remember, any car can get stolen. You can steal a Mercedes. Crawl under the car, pop the shift linkage clip off, put the tranny in neutral, rent a cheap U-Haul car dolly to tow it away.

I definately would go with the Brabus VI or the new Carlsson 1/16. It's their newest addition to the Carlsson line of wheels but the largest size is 20". You should try contacting them and seeing if you could special order the 1/16 in 22". This way, you would be the only person with a G500 on custom made 22" Carlssons. Just my opinion as it's nice to be original for a little while before everyone else catches on, and when you can afford it! Here is the link to the website, check it out: http://www.carlsson.de/gb/home_set.html
