What is Beautiful/Sharp Wheel?
Okay, what is your taste in selecting new wheels for Cl-S, my self I like 5 spoke designs like the stock ones. light weight is a major concern, finish quality is also another very important concern. However, B/C there so many aftermarket wheels and the styles are too much different... selecting a "nice" wheels for CL-S is a bit problematic.

I think Volk has some nice ones, maybe 5Zigen, or the Racing Hart C5's. Those are my fav's right now..maybe someone could photoshop some for you.

NNH,
I just ordered the SSR competion wheels for my track wheels. We will have to see what they look like. At 14.4 lbs, they are extremely light. They are available at the tire rack. If you check out tire rack, they come with the stupid stickers in the box so that you can decide if you want them on or not. (Thank God) I have to share this with someone (kind of excited) in addition to the wheels, I ordered two Recaro SRD seats to replace our stock CL-S seats. This car is becoming my weekend/track car and needed some lightening and some more head room.

Are the wheels you're getting anthracite?
What color is your CL?
What kind of tires?
Inquiring minds want to know!

I just purchased the BBS RK wheels. They weigh a little over 17 lbs each. Here's some pics...

I know you probably dont care at all about chrome, and I didn't either until I saw these:
The thing that caught me about them was the way they look so much like factory, in a way. The way they are recessed in the center, (and I know that is what everybody hates about our wheels already), and the 5-star design. Another whhel that I like is the 2-piece Niche Bella:
Now I know these don't help at all with your question because of the weight and chrome issues, but I thought it might strike someones intrest.

I never used to like chrome either... but in the past year or so I've grown a real taste for it:
Some of my favorite wheels are the Lowenhart LD1's:
Momo Sport
Focal F5
Neeper Haaz
Driv Mach 5
