#1 in chrome gets my vote.

Why not consider 20's the tire are lot cheaper and wider selection brands.

if i were you i would choose the millenium hyper silver w mirror cut lip or all chrome.
but you should maybe consider on getting some 20's. it'll look alot more flush.
good luck on choosing what you think is best

HAHAHAHAHAH. You can put chrome rims on , it's just a matter of taste , I've seen maybe 2 S Class W220 with chrome rims on that looked good but it has to be the right wheels man. Me i like my W220 with stock AMG wheels .

Hey Zarko - I'm actually also considering the mannheims in gunmetal for a 2003 S430 Sport (Designo Graphite) I am purchasing tomorrow and would love to see how they look on your ride.

Did you get them already and could you share some images?

Thanks!

hey lsantizo i got the wheels and they look unbelivable.. ill take a pic from my cell tonight when i get home.. my car and wheels are dirty as hell but you might get a feel what they look like....

what size are you planning on getting?

18's or 20's .. tires are cheaper on either , but 19's look better than 18" IMO.. tough choice but good luck...

look for the pic around 10pm cst.

ill throw more pics up sunday when i wash the beast

thanks

Congrats on the new wheels! I'm still deciding between 19 and 20 and trying to get a sense of which will look better. Did you get 20's?
