GLK 350
saw them at the dealer a few weeks ago. they look good on their own, but personally, i wouldn't put them on my GLK.

i'm glad they're doing this sort of stuff though. tapping into other markets for sure...

I would have to be a baller, or be on the local law enforcement's most wanted list, or both, to put these on my GLK

I am happy with the current dual spoke 20".
The new wheels are a little radical. IMO.

I agree. The new wheels have too much going on, I like my existing ones.

Is this wheel not like the wheels currently offered under the two tone selection, already located on mbusa.com? I believe these wheels have been offered for a while if i am not mistaken.

I went to NYC Auto show and all their MB's had wheels similar to that (black with metal) and I think it looks ghetto on most of the cars. They only look good on black cars imo.
