RE: black clk with black rims

i've been thinking about getting black rims for a long time now and i saw those rims also and i think they would look real smooth. My option for black rims are the gfg gf-1(5) rims. I think those would look better but that's just my opinion.

RE: black clk with black rims

Do a search for "black wheels" or "black rims". I held many discussions about this in the past and was so very close to buying those. Ultimately the fact that my car was silver was the reason I went with the ones I have now over those black beauties. In some of the posts, I remember we had pics of cars with black rims. That might help you out.

PS. I would highly recomend going with 19's and not 18's because with them being black, 18's will look very small. Just a warning.

RE: black clk with black rims

You have to do 3 things to make the ride sick with those wheels.

1. Get 19's for sure.
2. Tint the windows down to 20%.
3. Drop it on H&R's.

If your car is black like I see in your little image then after all of this you'll probably have a sicker car than mine (which is hard). [;)]

What would be really amazing is if you could find the wheels that Frank and I have with the same black set-up and machined lip. That would be insane looking. I haven't seen my rims in black though.

RE: black clk with black rims

Another PS. If you wind up doing everything noted above, the sickest finishing touch would be to black out the grill (have it painted gloss black like the car) and get that 4 or so inch strip of tint across the top of the front windshield. You would officially be pimped at that point. If I saw you driving behind me I'd have to pull my car off onto the shoulder, get out of it, and bow down as you drove by. [;)]

Everything else you said is in the equation of making the ride look good, but this one is a no-no. Leave that for the American cars and ricers...not on a Benz. IMO of course.
