Guys Help! My dad actually wants to put wheels on his 2004 Silver SL500.
What do you think would look good. I want to get CCW 505a or SP500
505a
SP500
I have a $3500-$4000 limit...including tires.

The sp500 look better.
Have you considered Brabus wheels? I would not put anything BUT Brabus on my Benz.
Thats just me.
These current monoblocks would look great on the sl500 (probably easier to find)

My buddy had these on his S500 and they were by far the BEST design. Too bad they were discontinued over 3 years ago.

Of the 2 he asked about: the 505a. But I love the ones you posted.

show him the website of HRE.DPE.or Iforged... ask him which one he likes.
quality wise they r all pretty much the same thing. some *Cough* brand is wayy over priced but you get the status and bragging rights =)

Don't get wheels just to get wheels. CCW's on a Benz = ![No No](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/nono.gif)
if the good ones (mentioned here already - Brabus, HRE, I like those ones
posted too, etc) are out of reach, wait til they are in reach.
I know that's not the question you asked but damn, plz don't put CCW's on a Benz.
