Which do you prefer for a 500E

I like the Monoblock II's on the Black car(its an '03 E320 wagon) and I like the star type as well on the silver as well ('00 SL) By the way, some one messed up when the did the rotation on the SL. It had one 9" wheel on the left front and an 8" on the right front. And a corresponding mixed setup on the rear. I liked the 9"'s on the front and plan to do like wise. My questis which do you like better and why. Which is heavier?

0293 (monoblocks) are my favourite. I think the others dont suit the character of a 500E (at least, not a standard spec one)

Mono or even the Evo II

why? i think they were designed when the w124 were around...the newer styles seem better on the newer models
