This guy has the same wheels on his TTS. No full body stills yet.

I love the look of 3-piece (and even 2-piece wheels). However, my luck with 3-piece and the ultra low profile tires has not been good, as I have bent so many on hitting not that big of potholes. For this reason, I only buy monoblocks now, especially since I have dropped my tire pressures a tad for ride comfort.

Haha - I’ve scoured the internet for all things oak green metallic. I actually DM’ed the owner of that car and he’s going to post more pics.

Forgeline 20x9.5 GE1R C/L +40 & 21x12 GE1R C/L +62 - perfect fit. Steve at Forgeline rocks it. Plus they got my wheels to me 1 week earlier than estimated! $7327 + $245 shipping. Not including tires of course.

Looks awesome. I may have asked before - is the suspension modified?

That rendering looks amazing! How do Brixton's compare quality-wise to HRE's/Anarky? I absolutely love their styles but I don't know anything about their reliability/reputuation...my limited knowledge of aftermarket wheels is that HRE's are among the very best in regards to quality and weight.

Thanks in advance

I think the quality is great, but there are many great companies with quality forged wheels. I like the really defined lines of the Brixton's. I have a set of R10D's on my E63S which are triple-tint in satin below. I have bought two sets of HRE's as well, the last being for my R8. When I was looking for a new set for the E63S back in 2018, I first looked at HRE but I couldn't find a style that I really really liked. Same thing now with the TTS, so I went with Brixton again.

BTW, my car is not that low. I was just playing around with the lowering module. The Mercedes, you can lower really easily through the OBDII Port.

The next best selling brand after HRE has been ANRKY (which also happens to be made by HRE). The only other brands that compete with them in regards to quality are BBS and Forgeline. Below are two Cab's that we completed recently. The Oak Green Metallic has S3-X1's and the Gentian Blue one has the 1-piece version of the same wheel called the S1-X1.

We work pretty closely with HRE and they’re great! Other great options we considered were from Brixton, Forgeline, Vossen, Rotiform. We decided on HRE 305M wheels for our shop car.

Duly noted...not fully committed to 3-piece but would go 20/21....21/22 is asking for trouble in the North
