Custom CLS 55 Wheels on M156 W211

A little teaser, after being on the forum for a while I decided I wanted bigger wheels that wouldnt sacrifice a lot of ride quality. (I also try to mod my cars with only OEM parts.) The AMG Logo will also be red, but you get the idea. (Wheels are powder coated)

Here is what I wanted:
OEM 19inch Wheels (Must be Concave)
Must look good on the car and be Unique to Me.

Final Step will be Powder Coating Calipers......


What do you guys think?

Thats the plan altho the calipers wont happen probably until next season, I have to research how to have it painted correctly due to the heat and the stickers. As I understand powder coating is an option on calipers.

But I would like a back up set of OEM as OEM is worth the most to a potential buyer.

SICKKKK PINSTRIPE - YES GET ///AMG DONE RED

^^^
it's not that difficult to paint calipers - PLEASE do that before putting on the wheels.
just buy a box of caliper paint, it withstands the heat - you apply it all yourself with a brush after prepping. and have a local sign shop or business card graphic place (i.e. fast signs) print up the stickers... no big deal at all
i am almost positive advance auto & oreilly auto parts carry the stuff, otherwise most wheel shops.

Those wheels are concave? I've never noticed a curve to them.
