Ask vrus what he thinks about CCW. Both our cars are in the E55 gallery @
www.ccwheel.com.
Torquey,

The CCws look hot! Will they paint the centers black if you request it? I would like some contrast to my silver car. The polished wheels look stunning on your car, but you have a dark color E55.

How much do they weigh? I had classics on my C5 and they were very light.

How about price for a set of 19s? Feel free to PM me

Thanks
Tony

Not an E55, but here are pics of the Carlsson 1/16 Ultra Light




E55 w/ Carlsson 1/16 Ultra light
Does anyone know how much lighter these wheels are than our stock wheels.. 18s compared to 18s?

I have the sliver multipieces and it looks soooo much better than stock. I also like the BBS style a la Rock. But I would check out weights (they aint light depsite the split setup) and make sure you get the correct offset to go with some wider rubbber on rear ... need +36 offset minimum on rears to go 285's/30/19's on style IV splits. May as well go wider right?

Good Luck!

Thank you for the compliment. According to Chip @ CCW my 19x9's weigh 20.5 Lbs and the 19x10's are 22 Lbs.
Give Chip & John a shout, they will answer any questions regarding custom work, pricing, etc. They are very reasonable and have superb service.

Does this mean the Renntech and Carlsson's are the best of both worlds?

How much are the Carlsson wheels? I looked on the Renntech site and their wheels retail for $5600 a set. Can we get a decent discount of retail on Renntech parts?

Thanks
Tony

i think something like this would look really nice and different. if you go with an aggressive lined bodykit or lip kit, it would look like a GT saloon. these also come in brushed silver and chrome.

oh, by the way, this is the Vellano VSP



the HRE C21 is very similar too, but a bit more sporty.
