But chrome reeeeyyyuuuummms though!
Yeah those look a lot better. Are they AMG wheels or something else? I’m not well versed in Merc wheels.

haha. that was the picture E90M3 sent me that convinced me! Although mine have more spokes, they really fit the CLK/SL line really nicely.

They’re called V-Turbines! 18x8.5 front and 18x9.5 rear, and they apparently take expensive-ass lug bolts. This rim uses a special sized radiused bolts and they are only present on this type of wheel; every other MB wheel takes the more common one.... thanks obama

Sounds about right. I know all about lug bolts since BMW’S use those as well. I think mine are the same size fronts, can’t remember the rears at the moment though. I know that has to be a pain if they are only specific to that wheel, but they do look better than what was on there.

They do look familiar now. Didn’t the SLK have a similar wheel to that as well?
