I have never been a fan of all black wheels... but that has me changing my mind. I think you have one of the few cars that can successfully pull that look off.

Looks great! Thanks for the pics.

Thanks guys

the pics look great but the car looks even better seen in person. i saw it Saturday evening while looking at a GL550 for my wife.

i can't find words too say. it's sooo amazing

you are a very lucky man

CLS55 V8K · 11-25-2007, 04:38 AM

Very Nice!!!

Adi_V · 11-25-2007, 05:25 AM

Yum !

vcruiser · 11-25-2007, 11:58 AM

i still think the stock black series rim best suit the car!

iguess · 11-25-2007, 01:19 PM

man those look great! i think the flat black goes VERY well with your car

dsb · 11-25-2007, 02:04 PM

Hope you don't mind me tweaking your pic...

Here's what it would look like with a painted lip. I still prefer this over all black wheels because it seperates wheel from tire. HOWEVER, I do think your all-black wheel is the first I've actually liked.

dsb · 11-25-2007, 02:15 PM

Here's one more for fun...

thanks man

honestly thats what im going to do on monday. I will install the pinstripes kartoyz gave me as an option

that looks good.

dsb · 11-25-2007, 07:34 PM

Not my best work but it gives you a basic idea. Second one has slightly tinted windows. BTW, the pinstripes are simply taped on? Are they round in shape? I've always thought they were painted on.

atan808 · 11-25-2007, 07:51 PM

PERFECTO

yes they are just taped on

dsb · 11-25-2007, 10:51 PM

Okay, after this I might have to start charging you... although I'm not sure you can afford it after buying a BS.

with tinted windows

FreshTAMPON · 11-25-2007, 11:07 PM

wow, your car is amazing!

W211 Ryda · 11-25-2007, 11:27 PM

I agree.
I am never a fan of black rims, but I do like them on your car.
Very underground - race inspired.

AMGOODNESS · 11-29-2007, 06:54 PM

i have some black BBS RC's on a tornado red GTI. it looks good. in my opinion black wheels really only look good on red and silver cars.
