Thumbs down just a few opinions needed before I pull the trigger

2014 CLS 63 S AMG (4-Matic)

I have only owned dark colored cars (as you can see by my sig of my old CLS 550) and this

new beast was white on white and had to have it. My problem is I dont know what color wheel will look the best.

so I am posting a few pictures and would love your thoughts... Matte black, Matte Graphite , Matte Bronze combinations.. Here they are

That first wheel is killer bro. The bronze face with the black lip is just sick. Plus they are concaved making the appearance even more aggressive. Those other wheels look like they should be on a 1996 Honda CRX LOL!!! But no seriously if you get those wheels and combine it with a staggered assortment you are going to hurt some feelings. The 3pc forged wheel is a hard one to beat.... whewwW

Yes indeed, HRE devopes and fine master crafted wheel forged by the hands of God. They are not only easy on the eyes but are forged and extremely durable. This is one of those things where I like to quote "You get what you pay for"

I actually dig the first two options....especially the 2nd. There's something cool and different about a bronze wheel on white. Typically around here all you see is black.

My first CLS was white and I had graphite/titanium/silverish wheels. Looked very sharp...so either way I think you're going to look sharp.

I'd probably go with the bronze FWIW.

I agree on the Bronze finish. Here's a set of RS103's we did in Satin Bronze:









I'd agree, on a Merc, this multi-spoke style works very well. Definitely a fantastic choice to match it up with the Bronze finish too

I would toss HRE's Brushed Clear finish into the ring as well.

Cant beat white with dark gunmetal/black wheels and nice window tints. Go for that look.
