Any suggestions? I thought about some of the older AMG rims, as they don't seem to have too many crevices for brake dust to build up, but I'd like to see what other people have come up with. I don't want to go bigger than 18, and would preferably like to stay at 17.

Thanks!

The w211 e63 AMG wheels look sharp and appear very easy to clean.

I believe you can get this in 17" and/or 18".

Get some Mandrus wheels, they are built only for Mercedes so it comes with teh proper hub size, they are all made with Mercedes bolt pattern, they are good lookingn and they are low cost.

17"- $238
18"- $268
19"- $304

You can't really go wrong with those prices.
