Thoughts on 18" wheels for AMG appearance pack?

I know it's only May, but I'm starting to think about a set of winter wheels for my car with the AMG appearance pack. I'm just keeping an eye out for any good local deals on 18" take-offs from non-sports pack cars this summer.

Of the different 18" wheel styles out there for the 221, which do you guys think would look the best (or the least bad) on a car with the appearance pack?

Thanks for the opinions.

As far as factory wheels are concernced, I think the standard 7 spoke 18s are the best looking - also most plentiful. There are also 5 spokes but they are no so great. I have heard MB will launch a new 18" wheel for MY08 although I have not seen any MY08s just yet. 17" aftermarket are also a possibility for fitment but they will not look so great. You are making a smart choice to use the snow tires! Good luck.
