Need help choosing 19" wheels for 211 E63

assuming money is no object, would love to get some of your guys' opinions on wheels for my Flint Gray 07 E63. Definitely want to go with 19's. I've looked at 100's of wheels and still not sold on any set. Pics would be even more appreciated.

Did you look through the E55 picture thread and Wheel thread stickied at the top of the forum?

Can never go wrong with almost any CVs from vossen. Be careful if you get CV3s, you still need flush mount stems or they wont clear the front calipers.

The new lightweight S series from HRE is just spectacular.

Klassen is doing some really nice stuff right now.

Agrees, those Klassen 52s are awesome looking, and they claim they're 100% US made. I really like them as well as the P101 that they beat HRE to the punch
with, and those P40SC in the pic above while a few years old in design are one of the best looking wheels ever made. There's a reason every other manufacturer on Earth has a ripoff of that design.

If money is really no object, custom make a set to your liking. But usually money is an object, so just pick a set you like at a price you feel comfortable paying.

Couldn't agree with senior boost or worth the wait more. Love the new S series and klassen 52s. You can never go wrong with a P40.

P40 were one of my favorite, may go that route if nothing else cathes my eye.

anyone know anything about these? I've looked at many of the more reasonably priced wheels and my biggest concern is their offset. i want the wheels to be almost flush with the fender, kind of like the CLS55 19' wheels.

There's always our Carbon Series or, at the other end of the price spectrum, FlowForm FF01.

I found these, he says $2900 for 19's, should I go with satin black or gloss silver on my flint gray? i'm thinking black wheels and maybe having all chrome blacked out.

Most importantly what would be the correct offset for my E63?
