New wheels for my S55
Hey all, I've been kicking around the idea of getting new wheels. I like the look of these



But I also like the Vertini Hennessey wheels as well.


Does anyone out there have the first one on their S55 that they can post a picture of. Thanks.

Vertini Hennessey wheels look pretty good.
Wheels in the first pic look ugly 4 sure.

The first wheels are on the 2011 CLS63 AMG.....I didn't think they were that ugly.

Thinking about these on my S55....what do you guys think? I don't have the money to drop 4-5K on wheels. I thought I would be a good fit though.

from the choices you gave out I'd prefer the Vertini Hennessey!

But at the sametime I think they look a little too "busy"?! anybody know what I mean?

Yeah I agree with you on the "busy" look. I'm having a hard time finding something that I really like, that won't take away from the AMG look. You did it right ShangoAshe. What are your wheels anyway, love'em!!!!
