The trick with contrast
Modern rims are also a design statement. Ideally, they harmonize well with the colour and style of the car or are so refined and strikingly designed that they catch the eye and draw attention. This also applies to the AEZ wheels that come in the "dark" design variant.
They feature contrasting colours with bright, high-gloss polished areas and a "dark" side, available in gunmetal front-polished or glossy black front-polished tones. AEZ offers the striking contrast of these two colour variations in various designs.
For example, in the form of the:
AEZ Havanna dark, which, with its pulsating, detailed design, makes an excellent figure not only on large SUVs. With a load capacity of up to 1045 kilograms, it is well-suited for heavyweights and available in sizes from 8x19 to 10.5x21 inches.
The modern, asymmetrical rim with its many appealing details can be easily mounted on many Audi, Mercedes, Tesla, BMW, or VW models thanks to ECE approvals.
The AEZ Alaska dark surprises with its seemingly straightforward design that reveals its subtleties only upon closer inspection.
Five intricately drawn V-spokes with a front-polished finish form the visual base, and the distinctly accented rim bed emphasises the futuristic look, making it particularly suitable for electric sports cars like the Audi e-Tron GT or Porsche Taycan. The extra touch of sportiness is available in sizes from 9x20 to 11.5x21 inches.
A particularly delicate representative of the bicolour faction is the AEZ Montreal dark, which, with its understated make, offers a design upgrade for many vehicle models and can fulfil various roles.
From elegant to practical to sporty, the Montreal meets many demands, is available in sizes from 18 to 20 inches, and handles high loads exceptionally well.
The AEZ Berlin dark could be described as a multi-spoke rim with a twist, featuring ten double spokes uniquely intertwined. The central star formed by the middle section, together with the deep black rim bed, plays the role of the contrast element, giving the Berlin a striking depth and three-dimensionality.
The Berlin dark is particularly suitable for models equipped with the star, from the A to the S-Class, but also looks good elsewhere in 18 or 19 inches.
With its expressive cross spokes, unsurprisingly, the AEZ Porto dark is one of the most popular rims for (upper) middle-class vehicles. It plays with a classic look that is universally applicable but can also be used as an accentuating accessory in the two-tone scheme with the contrasting spoke elements in gunmetal.
The AEZ Porto dark also offers numerous Plug&Drive applications for sizes from 18-21 inches, thanks to VTA and ECE approvals.
The ideal partner for premium SUVs from manufacturers like BMW, Range Rover, or Porsche is sporty and simultaneously shows a lot of power and dynamism:
The AEZ Leipzig dark impresses with its cleverly twisted Y-design and appeals more to extroverted individuals looking for something special without making any compromises on functionality or robustness. The Leipzig dark is available in sizes up to 22 inches.
The small, Antillean island of Aruba stands for Caribbean liveliness and joie de vivre, and the design of the AEZ Aruba dark surprises with its quirky styling.
Its thin, high-gloss polished spokes emphasise its sportiness, with small details setting beautiful highlights. The V-spoke is available in sizes from 18 to 21 inches and is particularly suitable for (upper) middle-class vehicles of the VW/Audi group.
The AEZ North dark breathes the spirit of the north, since it has been designed specifically for mid-range models from Volvo – but also looks good on many other cars.
Here, the glossy gunmetal areas are very prominently executed, with five double spokes with unique shapes emphasising the solidity of the North, offered in sizes from 18 to 21 inches.
Straightforward, angular, sporty – that's the AEZ Kaiman dark, which makes a clever twist with its intermittent single spokes in contrasting black.
With ECE, the Kaiman can be mounted without approval for many mid-range vehicles and is available in sizes from 17 to 20 inches.
With its strikingly arranged cross spokes, the AEZ Panama dark looks both modern and mysterious.
The sophisticated design of the strong rim (load capacity up to 1025 kg) is perfectly highlighted by the contrasts between the unusually shaped front spokes and the dark rear part. Designed and suitable for premium SUVs, for which there are numerous VTA and ECE approvals.
