Mercedes owners obsession with OEM+ Wheels?

[Shude]

what rims would you recommend for a facelift 202 minus amg monoblocks as its been done a million times over

What diameter rims are you looking for?

The 202 will take rims from 124/129/170/171/201/202/203/208/209/210/230 with zero mods required.

17 or 18" rims from a facelift 210 or 230 (up to 19") look good. Tyre choice can be limited on the 19" rims.

Subtle,or maybe tasteful,stylish,elegant or refined.None of which applies to the examples in the pics.

Its a UK thing i guess.........

Just leave `em standard,its nearly always best.

See!

I don't think it is a UK thing

I think more one of taste

But it is whatever floats your boat

Privately I've always thought "Nice alloys maketh a car".

Other folks might think

mud flaps maketh the car

or

Rear spoiler maketh the car

Surely it is a personalthing just as some folks think a car is just a means of transport to get from point 'a' to point 'b'

I personally think that wide, low profile tyres can look plain stupid but others might think they

Maketh the car

Liking the LM's, my excuse is the car came with them, and whilst they are aftermarket, I presume they are Carlsson copies but I am not afraid of other brands, certainly did with other cars I've had, just that my car came with them, I would consider swapping if the right wheels came along though.... money comes into it for me though so nice wheels often have a nice price tag!

Only AMG Monoblocks work

Does that mean mine look rubbish Lol!

Chaps, I found some more pictures of that CLS with Kahn rims for you.
I'd forgotten it was a 63 AMG...
