haters crazy
I have a set of slick and skinnies in the classic design 
I think they would look great in a bigger size and a nice lip. That pic is of the race version btw
Edit: attached a couple pics of the rear classics on my car in 16". They are a pita to clean and the polished lip is hard to maintain

I'd love to see someone rocking the classics...
LOVE LOVE the guys at CCW. They just can't get enough of us insane AMG'rs running 16's on these beautiful cars. We are the talk of the place.

just ordered some CCW's for the back of my S65, 18 inch, custom offsets, no prob! John is the man. Reasonably priced for a custom rim!

At first I was going to with the LM20's for my W211. Jon @ CCW strongly suggested that I don't. So I decided to go with the classics. Jon once again strongly suggested that I don't. Hence why I went with the C2K's. I liked them alot but I think I would have loved the classics more.
I was told that the reason why I couldn't do the classics were because the brakes are too big in the front.
I also have a set of classics for the rears in 16's for my drag set up. They are AWESOME!!!

I ran CCW on my last two cars. Lived close enough to drop by the shop personally. John spent a lot of time with me choosing the right wheels and helped me install them right then and there. Fantastic, knowledgeable guy!

Thanks everyone. I have also been very impressed with CCW. I just don't hear much talk about them, that is why I was asking. Looks like my next set of wheels are CCW again! Looking at the 505A

I have the 505's in 19's ... great wheel...looks really nice and is very light and strong...tough to keep clean due to the polish surface but if you stay on top of it, they stay looking great, using a good protective metal polish helps....

My current SP500s are a pain to clean also because they are polished. I didn't stay on top of that and now they need resurfacing. I was looking at getting asome kind of durable finish on the 505A I don't have time to polish wheels anymore.
