8 spoke mesh wheel recommendations
I'm looking for something like this in 18" or 19" for around $1000 for the set. I love the Apex' on my BMW, but unfortunately do note come in a W211 fitment. There are lots of 5 spoke options, but haven't seen any 8 spoke at that price that I like.

Those are nice, but too many crevices and creases. This is the big issue (at least for me) - how they attach to dirt and brake pad dust. Multi spokes are nice, but so hard to clean.

True. Mesh wheels are a pain to clean. But in all honesty, I've always hated cleaning wheels and stopped cleaning my own wheels a long time ago. I'll gladly pay the $6 wheel up charge at the car wash.

I use a brush with very long soft bristles and warm soap and water and it cleans them perfectly each time. My wheels aren't as complicated as the others.

After a bunch of searching, I've found that VMR has a couple 8 spoke mesh options. And a bunch of other great other options on 5x112 as well. I actually love pretty much all their luxury series wheels, and am having a hard dime deciding which one to go with, though I'm leasing towards the V702s.
