Thumbs up mbworld please tell me what you think?

i really want to change the current wheels that i have on my E63 which are Concept One CS-5's, i was thinking about going with the Vossen's CV4, Mike from Advance Performance has been a great help going out of his way to help me out by photoshopping them onto the car to help make an easier decision. Any feedback would be appreciated thanks!

the split spoke wheels are my current wheels, what look suits the car best?

i drive them all, fast and hard
funny the cs5's i guess the last two pics actually have the same pattern as the OE forged ones where as the first pics, i gues the vossens kinda follow the OE non forged,

i like them, looks good if u get it that deep concave,

I like the Vossen CV4 more in brushed or silver machined though. Looks nicer IMO

I agree with Sickty3. Either the silver polished CV4's or machined black.

Thanks for the input. After seeing the photoshop'd CV4's I'm leaning more towards the CV5's or CV7's

PTI but Im not sure what number is what but based off your choices I like the split 5 better.

The CLS shows that set of vossens better because of the lines but the lines on the E class scream for a more aggressive set up IMHO.

I ran a mesh (p40SC) on my CLS but ran a more aggressive 5 spoke (p45SC) on the wagon because the CLS is already got such bulldog like fenders and curves. But the E is more basic to me so it needs a kick via the wheels. Get those split 5's powder coated black and call it a day...
My thoughts.

Yeah the set on the left and on the CLS are more fitting of an S Class style wheel... in fact when I first saw your debadged car and looked quickly I thought it was an S class.... touring wheel
