I'm thinking about getting these style of rims. They are 2008 CL55 Replicas and look pretty good for being a dual 5-spoke rim. I looked at them via eBay and they only have them in Silver or Chrome. Another site has them in the Gunmetal finish but are about $200 or so more expensive.

I have a Graphite Roadster and think the Gunmetal would look best but I already have the OEM silver rims so I don't think they would look terrible. I also want to lower the car with some Eibachs as well so by going the cheaper route but in silver I can probably do both feasibly, but I could also wait and save up a little bit and get the gunmetal ones now and lower the car later.

Opinions?

Silver Finish - $985 (Rims, Shipping, Install)


Gunmetal - $1,135 (Rims, Shipping, Install)

 

i'm liking the gunmetal.

 

gunmetal would look nice! thats my vote.... if i get one? lol

 

Fantastic wheels. Very tasteful. It's my taste not to have too much bling. I always did like the German wheels on BMW, Mercedes etc. I like the silver like our originals but understand others like chrome. It would be boring if we all had the same replacement wheels.

 

The silver is growing on me and honestly I could always get them powdercoated in an almost exact matching color if I choose to do so later on down the road. I really want to get the car lowered as well and if there's too much wheel gap then I'd want to do it sooner rather than later.

I'm trying to talk the one supplier down in price on the gunmetal since I can get the silver ones for $200 less.

 

Thumbs up!

 

Man those are some nice looking rims. Who makes / sells them and what are the part numbers that would replace the standard front and rears.

Thanks in advance.....

 

I've been looking for new rims and these are perfect. Very classy....

 

I want the startech rims. Those are pretty sweet. Where can you get the startechs??

 

I think they look great. I expect to see them in July.

 

Anybody know who makes these rims or a web site I can see with them for sale?

tanks....

 

Those ARE some very classy looking rims.

What's the source/website for them and are they produced in Europe or China or Korea ? I have to say, the polished/gunmetal looks a LOT better.

Worth the extra money IMHO...
