OT: Saw a CL500 w/ 360 rims...

While I was at the A/V shop where my E55 is "residing", I saw a CL500 sitting in the parking lot and took pics of his wheel treament. Is it me or does there something lacking? I'm not sure if this wheel truly fits the car...or is it the stock calipers and rotors? It just looks naked...

Need more than 14 inches of cross drilled disc if your going to roll around town on spindly 20s.

I think it does look a bit "hollow" in there. It would probably look much better if the rotor and caliper were super clean.

If the inside part of the rim was painted black...that would help, too.
