AMG's look the best IMO hehe.

Yeah.. I like the AMG twin spoke but I think the mono VI still looks more agressive and elegant. Anyway, anybody know where to find the replica of the twin spoke?

BrabusPower · 11-06-2002, 08:21 PM

lhoang , I wonder how many sets of rims do you have, look like you have a lot =)

CitronC230K_03 · 11-06-2002, 08:27 PM

so when you buy generic rims are the still descent quality, or is that something you should be concerned about??

Ok Im going to sell my Brabus Monoblock V. These are authentic not fake. They are 18x8.5, in fairly good condition. Comes with hub rings and bolts. Tires are 225 40 18 BF Goodrich G force T/A KDW2. Tread is about 85% left.

Here is info on the tires...
http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....omCompare1=yes

I prefer socal. I want you to look at the wheels. I have 1 blemish on 1 wheel, a minor scratch about 2 in. Honestly I have no clue how it happened but its very minor. Not a deep scratch. Anyways, there is another guy selling the same wheels in the classifieds section. He is asking $1900. I am asking $1900 or best offer. He is in Norcal and is on Nitto 555. Nittos are almost $100 cheaper than the BF each. Anyways, pics will be up later.

Email me with your offers JLee765@aol.com.

For those who asked me about the hubrings and Brabus Studs...

Hubrings go on the hub to secure the wheel so that there is no vibrations when it spins. It leaves no gap between the rim and the hub and the wheels sits perfectly on there.

The Brabus Studs are a little bit shorter than the normal MB studs. The main difference is there is much more thread so it can grip better. Also, when a stud is too long it will hit the brake shoe in the rear and make a noise.

c230_kS · 04-30-2003, 11:10 PM

nevide · 05-01-2003, 08:10 AM

You can either contact Brabus NA directly or you can shoot me an e-mail. I am a Brabus dealer and I've got their full price list. Everyone is selling at the same price.

NWP4LIFE · 05-13-2003, 04:24 PM

Can I ask approximately how much the rims were? I'm really leaning toward those.

john_m · 05-13-2003, 05:10 PM

thanks for the compliment.

check your PM, I just sent you the details. Although I didn't buy them from wheelexperts, I highly reccomend them. Peter has great communication and customer service.

I bought mine from a local shop because a couple of friends also bought 19" and 20" HRE's so we got a deal on all 3 sets.

CHATMANR · 05-13-2003, 06:03 PM

Nice setup! I'm curious; what offsets did you use?
