I'm considering a few different designs because of past sponsorships and hopefully future sponsorships for my upcoming CL. I was sponsored by QT Alloys before. I'm not sure any of their wheels would look good on a CL. Maybe the S-08's. Their main company also makes Alba Wheels and ATA Wheels. Alba has two or three wheels that I think would look great on a CL. ATA only makes three designs. I like one of them on the CL. I forget model numbers and all, but you can check them out at www.qtalloys.com That will take you to their main page which lets you link to Alba/QT/ATA

I'll look up the models tomorrow and see if anyone agrees or wants to give feedback. Might save me from making a mistake in my choice.

Casper, I recently got some silver 5-Zigen M-5's on my 3.0. Wait till I get pictures up (a week or so) so that you can check 'em out. I think they look pretty tight and they flow well with the car (although i still need to lower it). Racing Hart c2 evo's look pretty nice too. Who on this board had 'em? And yes, either white or silver would look nice.

I just got 18" Alt x-philes. They are a 6 spoke silver. They look tight, I am lowering and still trying to get my hands on a digi cam to post pics. Check out the wheels at www.altwheels.com they are 191 x-philes

White, touring style with a lot of thin spokes. That's just what I like though.

I think anything but white would go against the overall feel of your car.

I definitely agree with the white making the car complete as apposed to a silver wheel... but its hard finding non-cheesy looking white wheels... I think a multi spoke wheel like an enkei might also take away from the luxury of this luxury-sport car... DAMN.. this is hard...

I like the Axis Se7ven rims in Gun Metal gray. I think that would look awesome on your car. Granted, white rims would complete your theme, but I'm thinking it may be too much, plus, like you said, it's hard to find white rims that aren't "cheesy" looking.....
