The first set isn't even staggered.. Not sure why you would want an 8.5 in the rear? And look for something a little less ghetto.. CLS AMG reps in black look good on a black car

I would get those but using want them in matte black.. And I've seen so many w211s with the spider web design! But I agree with you on the non staggered

If we're choosing between the two, I like the first set (visually)

Looking forward to one that gives us better options than "terrible" or "awful".

AHH...I like that even better. They are pretty close to ML63 rims like Johncy2000 has which I think are great. He was selling, but potentially had someone local, check them out.

While this one is the best looking of the three...I'd stay with your oem ones instead of the 3 mentioned.

I prefer the ones you have on the ride...elegant and classy. Something to be said for keeping it simple and clean. Just my two cents...

Save your money and get some good quality wheels. Guaranteed that they will crack or bend on these Houston roads.
