I love these wheels

The rest of the car ain't to shabby either. Literally my only complaint, and it is a tiny one, is the chrome B-Pillar, which looks like something you stick on at Autozone. Especially since the window edge of the rear door is black. Either way, it is a fixable problem. I'll take four.

Those wheels will look perfect on a Golf, because someone will try.

still can't get past the grille but I'd be interested to see what it looks like in person since I'll probably be at the LA auto show

Are those from an older S-class? or are they new? I feel like I have seen these a few times.

They would look awesome on a golf/jetta/passat indeed.

The whole exterior of this car has a "pep-boys sale" vibe to it. The ugly chrome wheels, the chrome b-pillar, the badges on the c-pillar. It reminds me of the Chrysler 300 I saw today. It just needs portholes.

They're very similar to the also awesome ones one the W220 S600.

The wheels are awesome. Fact.

I knew the inspiration came from the old W220. I never realized you could get those wheels on the even more beautiful CL. I need dis.

I mostly see them on older CL's. 600's specifically

I think the W221 S600 came with something similar as well but those were 5 spoke

Edit: found a photo. Center diameter is smaller but the effect is similar. Looks real classy though

No, they look like the kind of rimzyo you'd find on a Lumina-based Monte Carlo.

It's been done with their (sort of) predecessor. It's only a matter of time.

I do like these much more than the old Segins though. They look so much better, especially on the car they were actually made for. The Segins looked a bit awkward on the CL 600 or S600 (don't remember which. Maybe both?), but still very awesome.

No, they look like something you'd find on a CL600.

Which is, when you think about it, like a posh Lumina Monte Carlo. Kind of.

This whole exterior is tasteless and screams "I bought this because the regular S-Class wasn't chintzy enough." Just like every Maybach. At least they're sticking to tradition.

B-pillars need to be black, but other than that I wholeheartedly disagree.

There is someone on Oppo who has a 90s era white c class Merc that has some wheels that are very similar.

Probably off an early-2000's S600.

The old Maybachs were tasteless because they had different sheet metal with a too-small front end and that awful two-tone paint. This is just a stretched S-Class with a different interior, so I guess you hate the new S-Class too, which, hey, it's your opinion. Dollars to donuts that the new Pullman looks preeeeetty similar though, so prepare yourself to hate that too.
