Are those 18 inch brabus???
I was on my way to work this morning. I get on the onramp to the freeway and wait my turn behind all the other cars. A brand new W209 CLK320 pulls up next to me. I look over and think nice, it's brand new. We sit there waitin to merge and go on the freeway. He pulls down his window and signals me to do the same. I pull it down and he asks if I have 18's or 19's. I tell him 18's. He then proceeds to ask me if they are brabus...He was like so those are brabus right? I was like no, there amg. He then looks at me all confused like I said something wrong. I told him they were stock amg's that came with the car. Now here is the funy thing. After I say all this he goes on trying to correct me. He goes No, there brabus. I've seen them before and they were brabus. I just nodded my head and raised my window. Then I couldn't help but laugh my brains out. I'm sure he saw me but I didn't care. It was just too funny.

I feel that. But they do have about 4 Asanti that would be cool on a E55 AF116,AF118,af120,af126 all those with dark painted middle section would be sick.
Or the Alligator skin rims in 24" for one of those new 300C would look sick.
