High end wheel companies

I’m looking for more of a higher end wheel for my car, just so it’s not an overplayed rim.

can you guys tell me some of the other companies out there?

I have always liked Vossen wheels for Mercedes. The price was “reasonable” and many of them did not stand out as aftermarket. Here is my 2017 S63 with Vossen’s. Man, I loved this car. The quilted leather dash, ICW clock and integrated screens were so much nicer than the current 580’s.

PS. My 2c is to be very careful with 21’s and low profile tires. I had a replace a few tires and one wheel on this car. The wheel cracked after a deep pothole in the rain at fairly high speeds though.

This is why it’s a good idea to get multi piece wheels because if you damage a wheel, you can just replace the barrel.

Ah, that makes total sense. I always wondered what the purpose of multi piece wheels were (besides esthetics). Thank you. I learned something new!

Or you could just get wheels that are not so stupidly oversized so...

A: You don't have to drive like you're carrying a trunk full of nitroglycerin to keep from folding them.
B: You will not hurt every measurable performance metric.
C: Will almost never see a wheel issue in your lifetime while simultaneously not creating the harm mentioned previously.

I know it's crazy talk; just saying.

I think those are car brands, not wheel brands.
