Wheel choices on S63 -- any photos??

Thinking about AMG performance package 030 .....

Any idea what the differences are between the standard wheel on the S63 or the '20 wheel that comes with the AMG performance package. The amg website www.amg-mercedes.com shows the car with a great looking multispoke wheel but not clear if that's the standard wheel or the 20 incher. Any ideas?? Any photos??

Anyone see the black laquer wood from the AMG package vs the standard burl??

If you go to the models page, then S63, then click exterior highlights you will see the 19" multi-spoke wheel. I believe these are the standard wheels. (it describes a 5-spoke wheel however).

Page 39 of this brochure shows you all wheel options:

These are the wheels I would want (amazingly beautfiul):

Just as an FYI, the price on the style VI 19" 5-spoke multi piece at the MB dealer is $2000 (front axle) $2080 (rear axle), each.

The S has a lot more substance to it, so the solid spoke wheels go along better than the split design. The split design looks like on an SL
