The notorious G-Wagen will never go out of style. The iconic box-shaped utilitarian silhouette has remained true to its roots since coming into fruition in 1979. It has become a social icon in the new millennium that remains versatile in any setting around the world.

Today’s feature is courtesy to our good friends at KCTrends who have outfitted their customer with a set of our newly released AGLuxury AGL-Vanguard flow form wheels on this blacked out Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG.

Coming from factory with 20″ tires, there was a lot left to be desired in between the G63 AMG’s wheel wells. KCTrends opted for our 24×10″ AGL-Vanguard flow form monoblock. Featuring our flow-form technology, the Vanguard offers a lighter and stronger wheel to keep the weight down at each corner. The 24″ wheel fills up the large fenders nicely and provides ample room for when the customer needs to traverse any terrain.

With an aggressive concave face profile, the Vanguard offers a look that not only complements the G63, but adds a bit of class and style to the vehicle’s look. Finished in a full gloss black finish, the Vanguard adds to the overall color scheme and completes the look of the vehicle. To beef up the look of the G63, the Vanguard was wrapped in the Nitto Terra Grappler tires that offer an aggressive off-road tread pattern that is capable around the city.

The Rolls-Royce Dawn continues the fantastic lineage in the Rolls-Royce brand that is the epitome of luxury and beauty through unsurpassed craftsmanship.

The Rolls-Royce Dawn was introduced in 2015 at the Frankfurt Motor Show. Featuring a directed-injected twin-turbo 6.6-liter V12 that puts out 563 horsepower and 605lb feet of torque at 1,500 RPM, the Dawn is capable of getting to any desired speed with ease. Along with the power is the comfort that Rolls-Royce is known for. The use of the highest quality materials helps keep the interior silent to allow the occupants to enjoy the surrounding music or atmosphere.

MC Customs Miami brought together the perfect pairing of the Rolls-Royce Dawn and the AGL48-RR. The customer worked very closely with MC Customs to achieve an OEM look but stepped up to a 22” wheel size to fill up the large fender wells. From factory, the Dawn comes equipped with 20” wheels all around.

To achieve the perfect fitment that the customer was looking for, a 22x9” front and 22×10.5” rear sizing was chosen. The elegant 11-spoke design is finished off in polished finish with brushed inner-spoke accents. The wheels were machined to fit the factory Rolls-Royce floating cap, which is a piece of hardware that no Rolls-Royce can go without.

The AGL-48RR designed specifically for the Rolls-Royce maintains and improves on the overall look of the classy Dawn. The 24-inch fitment gives the vehicle some added depth to the wheel well that left more to be desired, while providing quite a striking and imposing appearance that one cannot ignore.

With more and more Tesla Model S vehicles on the road, it’s clear that the general public is becoming more comfortable with electric cars. For being a full electric car, the Model S still has the style and performance drivers are looking for. With an ability 0-60 in 3.1 seconds, the Model S provides an unparalleled driving experience; delivering all of its power in a smooth and silent manner. Tesla has definitely stirred up some chat amongst automotive enthusiasts.

With only two wheel options from the factory, many Tesla owners opt to enhance the exterior appearance by putting on a set of aftermarket wheels. Kar Tunz in Pleasanton opted for our 22x9” / 22×10.5” AGL17 forged monoblock wheels in a Brushed Champagne with Black Accents.

All of our forged wheels are engineered and machined in-house at our California headquarters. Each set is build to order for the specific vehicle they’re being outfitted for. This allows for us to engineer the wheels to be as strong and light as possible for each vehicle application. For a car like Tesla where weight savings is extremely important, stepping up to a 22” wheel should not be a compromise that reduces the performance and mileage of the Model S.

Additional exterior details were altered to provide this Model S P90D with a menacing style to back up its insane acceleration.

Ferrari has a long history of V12 Grand Tourers starting with their earliest, the Ferrari 166 Inter in 1948 lasting until 1973 with their mid-engine V12 sports car, the Ferrari 365 GTB/4. Grand Tourers, or Gran Turismo, are best known as the performance luxury vehicle capable of high speed and long distance driving. In 1996, Ferrari returns with the 550 thus continuing the line of successors to today’s Ferrari F12berlinetta.

The Ferrari 599 carried a title of being one of the most powerful road cars ever produced at the time with the engine output exceeding 100 hp per liter without any forced induction. In 2012, the Ferrari F12berlinetta finally makes it’s debut with an astonishing 30% increase. The Ferrari F12 is powered by a naturally aspirated 6.3 litre Ferrari F140 engine putting out 730hp and 509 lb-ft of torque in 65° V12 configuration. The vehicle was also named “The Supercar of the Year 2012” by Top Gear.

Taking in aerodynamic engineering from the 599XX, the F12 is developed with wind tunnels and fluid dynamic testings. A couple of new features on the F12 is the front Aero Bridge that allows an air channel to run from the bonnet through the side as well as their Active Brake Cooling ducts that open when brakes are hot and stay closed other times to help reduce drag.

This would be the second car MC Customs has done for Latin artist, Nicky Jam. The Ferrari F12 wouldn’t be complete without a unique touch of class. Nicky went with our AGL40 Dual Block on 21×9.5” front and 22×12.5” rear. With a dual block wheel, you’re able to either go with Hidden Hardware (also known as Blind Bolts) like Nicky’s set or exposed hardware. Why Dual Block configuration for this Ferrari? Monoblocks can only achieve a certain depth of concavity and so this is where our Dual Block comes in so that each set can be personalized for you.

Another addition to your having personalized AG Luxury wheels, Nicky Jam wanted to stay with the OEM center cap on the AGL40 and so custom machining was applied here to allow for OE cap application. It doesn’t stop there, every wheel available from AG Luxury has the option for a custom OE cap application from simple Mercedes-Benz center caps to extravagant Rolls Royce floating center caps.
