Suggestions for radial spoke wheels for a W203 C?

I'm looking for radial spoke wheels, like the new AMG, Carlson, or OZ Superturismo GT, for the W203 C-Class, preferably in 17", but 18" are considerable. Weight minimization is a big plus. Moven has a nice one, but only in 19" and the Borbet LS is quite heavy. Superturismo is looking like my best bet, but they don't look very classy.

For those who aren't familiar with the style I'm talking about, it's basically a 15-20 spoke wheel, with or without a lip, but I prefer a lip.

Has anyone seen any, other than the ones I mentioned?

Thanks.

Hi---check out Mandrus Milleniums. They are made in 17",also larger sizes. Just go to E-bay and plug in 17" Mercedes wheels. That will give you an idea of whats available. Good luck

thanks for the replies.

The Weds are a bit pricey for me and I don't care for the multipiece look.

I've seen the Mandrus, but they are the wrong offset at ET32.
