Not my taste in wheels, but it does look good.

I would like to see someone put the previous generation E55 wheels on a CLS. Your wheels kind of remind me of those.

I'm sure those rims will look good if they were shorter in size!

Reminds me of the old S-class wheels, two generations back. Not the wheels I would choose but I think they look quite good!

I think the wheels take away from the car much more than they give it anything. IMO wheels can really make or ruin the look of a car. Those dont do it for me at all. The drop is nice!
