Need wheel suggestions for my dad's car

kpagel · 06-21-05, 07:29

My dad is kicking around the idea of getting new wheels for his 2005 Mercedes SL500. He'd probably want some 18s because then he wouldn't have to change tires yet. He wouldn't want anything too crazy, a 5 spoke deisgn is always a favorite. He's looking for a silver or polished wheel, probably not chrome unless a design really catches his eye. I'm also trying to convince him that a black wheel with a polished lip would look very nice. Anyways, if anyone has any suggestions as to what you'd go with if you had this car, that'd be great.

I just have had a hard time searching through the (endless) websites out there, so thats why I'm asking for a little help.

Here's a (bad) photo

whats the price range? if he will go 20 inch (a must on that car

), then get the lowenhart ldr's in noir black. it'll probably run 6.5-7.5k with tires though...

black looks out of place on a petwer-ish car. chromes will look the best

Its actually silver. And I HATE chrome, so I'm hoping I can get him to get something different.

Dazz nee Sprewell Motorsports is in my back yard practically. The showroom is niiiiiiice! Don't forget to uh, stagger the sizes and make sure the back ones have a BIG FAT lip on em.
