What brand of 20's would you put on an S500 Black/black

Im in the market for some 20s and im debating on black finish or chrome finish. 1, 2, or 3 piece. Ofcourse price is a factor. Ive been looking at some giovana wheels, also some zeneetti wheels. Would you guys put those brands on an S class. What about Dvinci wheels. THey make a great looking 1 piece wheel. Im trying not to go with the traditioanl brabus look. My car has stock 18' AMG staggered wheels. I dont know, Should i change them

Some helpful sugestions greatlly appreciated. thanx

I had the staggered AMG's and replaced them so I could rotate my tires and get more wear out of them. I went with Rozzi Wikid 20's. Get lots of compliments plus I'm getting 40K miles out of set of tires versus 27 to 28K.

I've learned that those wheels ive mentiond above, geovani, dvinci etc,, are all junk wheels. So, Ive decided, why would I replace an AMG wheel and put junk on an S class. So what if they are 18s. I think you are downgrading performance as well if Im not mistaken when putting on 20s.

My friend made m e realize that on a mercedes, do not put cheep wheels. Specially on an S500. So, Im just still thinking bout it.

Giovanni and Dvinci, if you go with their 1-pc wheel line: price quality weight for sure is Your AMG wheel look much better Brabus also has around 35 lb each. Why not try some 1-pc forged ones or some light weight 2-pc, 3-pc, like Carlsson 1/16 or Lowenhart or these from Japan:
