Lowenharts, brabus, lorinser, are not really worth the price, unless you are buying specifically for the style or name.. However, Auto couture rims are reasonably priced and quite good looking.

yes but auto couture only makes up to 19" and the price difference is minimal

i really like the 2003 S55 AMG 18" Alloy rims, they are hard to find, but in the UK, they are all over the place and really cheap, u can find them for under 1000$ USD for just the rims.

Actually Auto couture makes 20" as well..i think they even make a 22" rim.

Treynor, I have seen the Renntechs on an S class. There was a guy selling them on e bay 3-4 mos. ago. I don't know if it is possible to look up old auctions.
Thay were a little loud for my taste.They were very busy with all those spokes. I wound up putting 2003 S600 standard 18" wheels on my car. They look good, are forged and weigh only 19 lbs. each. You can also get them staggered, as per MercManiac.

wow before i bought my lowenharts i called and they said they only made 19's i really like those rims. if i get sick of my rims i kno what im getting.

Same here, personally i like the old E55 rims, (or our lexus rims, see my sig) or five spoke thing rims like Fousse Rims (sp?) or the new Kleemann TS-6's i think. I like little clutter.

I personaly stay away from anything non factory. Those AMG's look just right. Understated elegance combined with brute power. That's what an S Class is all about. Anything else is just too "aftermarketish".

The AMG sport S500 look is too common. I don't want a car that looks just like "everyone else's". The only alternative is to spice things up with some aftermarket embellishment.

then it looks like you drive your car to care about what other people think and compare, youre insecure about your ride.

internet_mafia

It has nothing to do with being secure nor self conscious. I am not the type that just settles for popular trends. I thrive on creativity and exclusiveness. If MB just followed the boring trends of the rest of the auto industry, then they wouldn't be looked up upon as "the industry measuring stick" as they are. Actually, by following the "trend", I could argue that YOU are the one who is insecure of going against the grain with your car and thay YOU are the one who worries about what people would think if you did something unique.

i mean u dont buy a 100 grand car just for (the ride) u buy if because people look at u differently, u can show off in other words

If you are buying your car just to show off,something is wrong with you dude. I can care less what people think about me. I drive my car because I love the way it rides and looks, not other people., they are not paying for it. It is my personal satisfaction.
Me, before spending money on wheels which is just looks, I would do the suspension or double exhaust.
Anyway it's your car, and you can do whatever you like with it, but my opinion on those wheels...totally getto.

spitzeklasse

DAVIN ? ......WTF !!! It is based on LowenBRO rims Plus additional Spinner ( Yuck !!! ) . look dude No Hate !!! But I just can't relate . Peace!!!
