Aftermarket wheels for S550

Gentlemen,

I picked up an S550 sport over the weekend and I'm looking for some aftermarket wheels. I prefer chrome and as big as 22". I haven't seen very many with wheels but any pictures you have would be appreciated.

Congrats to the S550. Enjoy it.
The Brabus BRABUS Monoblock S looks nice.

Thanks for the comments guys. I already consulted wheelexperts.com and I've received some examples. I haven't found anything I'm in love with though.

OK check out some of the "non mainstream" wheels they offer. ie http://www.wheelexperts.com/wheels/klass/line.html

Saw these rims in Modified Luxury and Exotics magazine. They look absolutely stunning on the S550.

Also those Klass KF100's above look great.

I like some of those Jwade. I wonder if there's a way I can see them on a car though.

Sal, those don't appeal me so much.

Zone Z8/&swiss 2 are too similar to the new E-Class wheel so I'd stay away

What about some Hre 941R series?

Well, you gotta play to play...I personally like the stock AMG 5-spokes on the sport package but if I had to go aftermarket it would be HRE

Wish they would come up with some sort of customer loyalty program to reward repeat buyers who buy new

Tell me about it! I have the 5 spoke AMG sport wheels that came with my sport package. I just wanted to go slightly bigger and perhaps chrome and maybe even eliminate some of the wheel gap.
