too many to list
The first set resembles the 17" E Sport wheel available on the 320 and 500. The second set somewhat resembles the current E55 wheel, except for the meeting of the spokes at the lip. I like the HRE 542 R as this is what I had on my previous 911 Turbo, however, I think the wheel is not suited for the E55 IMO. If you must choose HRE, the 547 and 847 are both nice. Keep in mind HRE's bend very easily but they look great. If it was me I would get the AMG wheels in the 19" setup but you may suffer the ride with 19's.
Just trying to help.

945 are too much like Zauber Gettin/Fab knockoffs...HRE dropped the ball on the 9 series wheel IMHO. Sleek is good my fav and only choice since day one it came out is 8 series HRE.

The HRE's are less prone to road damange than the stock AMG rims. If you bend/damage a HRE rim, you sure would have destroyed an AMG rim cast rim.
