They're probably the best designed wheel on the market. If you are familiar with the wheel, you may recognize it from several Ferrari and Porsche cars. The quality of the wheel is so good, that they are in fact a producer of OEM wheels for Ferrari.

While those are great reasons to purchase a wheel, not one of them is why I bought them. Hands down, they are the best looking wheel I have ever seen. Pictures definitely do not do them justice. There is just too much care worked into each angle and curvature of the wheel.

Being a forged 3-piece wheel, they are also lightweight, which was a must for me, as all of my modifications are performance minded. And being the 2nd Mercedes (the 1st went to the owner) to have the wheels wasn't so bad either

Sorry for posting such a large picture, but a smaller one would not get close properly displaying this wheel. I'll try to get better (including my new upgrade to our 14" Evosport/Brembo Big Brake Kit) pictures once I get them cleaned.
