Help! Can you ID these wheels?

In the old parking garage where I uesd to park my car, a women with a W220 would often park her car that had the nicest wheels....

They looked to be OEM "twist/turbine" 5 (or 6?) spoke star wheels, I think either 17 (most likely) or 18in in size. They also appeared to be multipeice (likely 2 piece). Honestly the general design was sort of like the classic Porsche twist 5 spokes, but the shaping of the blades was more "sharp" and less bubbly.

No, they were definitely NOT the 18in SL turbines or 19in SLR turbines. They also were not lorinser/lorinser copy.

I think they were sport package wheels of some sort.

Any one have ideas?

NOT these either, but similar! The ones I am thinking of had more twist and *possibly* less spokes, along with sharper edges.
