Welcome back to Battle of the Base Wheels. !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! , we split the sport sedan segment into two groups. Today, the winners of each group will face off for the title.

Group 1 was a very close contest with the AMG, BMW, and Jaaaaag going back and forth. Ultimately the AMG threw the hammer down and came out on top.

Group 2, on the other hand, was an outright bloodbath, with the Alfa calling upon its lucky 4-leaf clover to slay the competition.

So here we are folks, the tried and true AMG takes on the upstart Alfa for the crown.

Let the games begin!

AMG C63

Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio

Even I had to vote for the Alfa.

The Mercedes looks like something from Need for Speed: Underground. And, like, Level 1 street cred.

They aren’t terrible, but they would fit better on a 240sx.

Am I the only one completely turned off by the sidewall ratio/fender gap of the Alfa?

I see it. I would go 1"larger on the wheels and a little bit taller on the sidewalls.

The Alfa’s wheels look like tiny little alien fingers reaching out from the hub to hold onto the rim.
