Are those calipers powdercoated gold or just driven hard?

This car was on eBay not long ago and the calipers are discolored (not powdercoated) due to some pretty heavy track use. The seller actually posted pics of the car on the track in his/her auction......

I have a CLK63 BS and I'm not a fan of the flat black wheels. It always looks dirty but to each his/her own.......

It's his choice, but I'd put the first wheels back on.

As they say, opinions are like a$$holes, everyone has one

Some people may prefer the OEM, polished look and stock fitment. Others may prefer the HRE's design, engineering and options for tire sizes. The black definitely looks more aggressive IMO - while the OEM looks...well...OEM. LOL.

Thanks for sharing Alex!

This just proves you can not go wrong with a quality company like HRE or Sharkwerks.

Great example of just how much a different wheel choice can change the entire look of the car dramaticly. I like it.
