I think they should of left it Unpainted. If you look close enough they did a bad job masking off the wheels when painting.

The Stock Benz wheels look better IMO

The wheels look clean (design-wise), fits the big benz/bimmer category. A staggered setup would look a lot cleaner IMO, but why must Vossen always do weird stuff with their wheel finishes?

Painted faces with a raw/brushed side on the spokes? Keep it simple, stop trying to get all kinds of crazy with this stuff. Black spokes and a polished lip would look a lot cleaner on the black benz. Get some nice clean spoke designs, and some nice finishes. The envelope you're pushing in finishes I feel is not going to put u guys out there

Lol

Those wheels that you see there on the Benz are 3 pieces meaning it's CUSTOM ... Duh ... Vossen doesn't choose a finish for a customer on custom wheels. That's the owner of the Benz that decides the finish on HIS/HER wheels !

Oh and just for everyone to know, our paint guy is a bad a$$ .. Those wheels are directional wheels meaning they all go a certain way to give it that TWIST look.

The paint is not off it's the angle our photographer took the picture.

That is my favorite large sedan, I absolutely love the car. I think the rims look very nice, but I do agree that a staggered setup would have looked better. So is this your ride or is it just a model Vossen car?

It should be in the Marketing thread because all you are doing is trying to advertise wheels that dont even appeal to the masses this particular site! The G37 site is the angle you need to pimp more.

How are they wannabe ? The 087 and 086 look nicer than both of those wheels you put .. Your seriously going to tell me that their wannabe ? Lmfao

086 are unique when u find a rim that's like it let me know! Cuz the wheel u posted there looks nothing like the 086 and the 087 has the split in the middle making it unique as well ... Like I said find one that looks identical to both ..
