Any updates on BBS wheels?
Why is it that it doesnt seem like there are any MB's out there with BBS wheels? Mainly the current C Class.

Has anyone verified if there are BBS wheels which which fit/clear the brakes for the C63?

For the C63, do you offer the Superleggera III in all the color choices (Black, Bright Silver, Light Grey) or just the bright sliver as on your site?

Any idea Luke if and when Yokohama or Pirelli are going to bring back tires for those abfad gorgeous BBS mesh wheels that came out on the Koenig in the 80's? Our girl is six years sitting gathering dust because no one makes her 'shoes' anymore I know we can totally change wheels/tires but for us in New Zealand, thats mortgage money! Any news on this front?

My mind and my car are both E63. So that said, I don't see that the Ultraleggera HLT are are compatible with an E63 on the TireRack.com website. Do they fit W211's?
