    Yeah that was the first thing I wanted to do, and they have a nice 5 star with a small lip. But when I seen the new two tone wheels, they really caught my attention.

Its a luxury car regardless, you dont put pep boy/ebay special 1 piece cast wheels on it, thats the point in trying to make
      Your point of view is understandable, but not the norm. I have similar car, my friends from car club and regular friends have cars like CLK, CLS, BMW E92 etc etc, most have aftermarket wheels and I doubt even a single one has non 1 peace wheels. Thats why I said your point of view is not a norm.
      I understand "the need" for 3 peace wheels on lambo/maseratti/ferrari etc... But not on "regular" cars like MB, BMW etc (except maybe their flagship models, but even then..)

        You cant custom fit a 1 piece cast wheel, you can custom fit a 2 or 3 piece wheel since theyre machined. I just like to do things right and have things fit perfect so i dont put cast on my cars, plus forged is stonger. If you put a 1 piece cast wheel on a BMW or Mercedes or any car for that matter and expect and performance out of it then youre mistaken and you just wasted your money . I doubt your MB/BMW friends would do such an atrocity to their vehicles in all honesty. Regardless it seems like an OEM Upgrade is what the OP wants, an AMG wheel would look right at home on his ride.
