    The Mercedes Benz CLS 550’s introduction back in the 2004 was a huge success in the four door sports luxury sedan market. It has received many changes over the past decade and all have exponentially improved its exterior and interior parts, but it still has that very distinct swept roof line and strong side contours that have grown on us. This customers CLS 550 was brought to us for a set of ADV05 Track Spec SL 22"x9" and 22"x11". The beautiful matching brushed Gunmetal and gloss black finish was chosen to add a touch of class to this sporty sedan. This wheel garners a very aesthetic split five spoke design and the ADV.1 wheel design makes the spokes look like they are floating in the center of the wheel itself. They accomplish this by ending the spokes right before they come into contact with the barrel edge, but not being closed off by touching the lip of the wheel. It really is a cool feature and this end user loves the look!

    You keep using those words. I don't think they mean what you think they mean.

    "As always, let us know what you think and your opinions!"

    Well, Class ??

    Theirs literally nothing classy about these wheels, nor does 99,99% of every other aftermarket wheel available add any class to any vehicle. It's for posers, pimps and packs.

    It epitomizes the world we currently live in; it's automotive fastfood, it's for footballers, it's Dubaiésque; it's empty, soulness nonsense.

    As they say in football; form is temporary, class is permanent.

    Sorry ;-)
