I've seen them on other cars. They look good to me. I like the rough/sporty look
If all else fails I'll get them powder coated black.

Anyway, enough busting your balls, I just like the look of the "rough" finish ala invincible's wheels. As seen here: https://acurazine.com/forums/showthread.php?t=133595
I love how his wheels look. It will go well with what I am going to do with my headlights!

ludachrisvt - when you get your wheels could you please weigh just the rim, and then weigh the rim with the tires on? I would like to see the difference in weight between these and stock. thanx in advance

They are comming to me mounted and balanced. The tire is usually the bulk of the weight for sure. My TSW kayalamis only weighed 20 lbs each and they were 20"! But with the tires on they were closer to 40-50 lbs.

nope, i always wanted the machine finish... but when i asked about the wheels dustin was like...you want the machine finish right? i said yeah...so he's like "good cuz the forged grey looks like ass..." i guess it looks OKAY? but like....i just don't like the finish...it's not smooth. invincible's car has 20" iforged.

ludachrisvt - could you please weigh the rims and the tires then? i would like to know a relatively accurate weight, like to the nearest pound.
this is really one of the deciding factors of whether or not i get new wheels

Could you please try to get some more pics when you get a chance? It looks nice from the ones you have...and are these also 8.5 wide?

UPDATE!!!! i got a 6 inch long curb rash the other day....my rims definately are strong as they ripped the concrete out of the curb...you can definately see where the wheel damaged the curb
good thing i didn't buy Work VS-XX or else i would have cried

i hope you like spending time at the dealership when your ride goes haywire. Mercedes has some of the worst consumer ratings of all car manufactures

^ i'll just get something else then. I change cars like I change clothes. Shit, I may even trade this bitch when the new 07 TL comes out. I am 12k in the Green with this car. I had ALOT of miles on the TL. Which my dad was able to give me a great trade in. Who wouldn't want to trade with a deal like that?
Anyway, if I dont like it, I can trade it and come out waaaaaaaaaaay on top.

I thought it was you because your wheels have wide lips while King's wheels are lipless. Anyways, I'll prolly honk if possible the next time I see you or try to run you off the road. j/k. 
I usually drive my Accord to work, trying to save my TL's mileage. It's an 06 Accord sedan with very dark tints. It's bone stock right now except for 3G TL wheels.
I should be back in town Saturday night. If I can, I'll be at the meet with some food and utensils.
