Personally,

I do NOT like the standard thin-spoke AMG wheels. I do however like your photoshop pic of the SLR wheels on the SLK. THAT would be a wheel that I would consider.

OMFG!

Those wheels look BRILLIANT on the SLK55, especially in silver

I like them better than my wheels which is the first time I've thought that. How much?
