Ok guys, I rushed home to throw these badboys on and snapped a few pics so you guys can see what they would look like on an E55 with mild drop. You can see that the rear wheels need spacers to just bring them out a little more but they still look good though. Gotta admit, kinda getting mixed feelings about selling them now.

obsidian05e55 · 08-17-2011, 11:43 PM

I gotta agree. It looks boss!! Have Bill send the new lips!

no spacers, you got plenty of room for a nice rear lip.

Front wheel width: 10.187"
Front Wheel backspace: 6.299"
10.187" ÷ 2= 5.09"
5.09" - 6.299"= -1.209" or -31mm offset

Rear wheel width: 10.75"
Rear wheel backspace:7.283"
10.75" ÷ 2= 5.375"
5.375" - 7.283"= -1.908" or -48mm offset

Where are you measuring the widths? Those numbers don't seem right. They are usually in 0.5" increments

djrabbi · 08-22-2011, 01:19 PM

trade for CLS wheels with tires?

djrabbi · 08-22-2011, 01:22 PM

PM'd you and B. Gorman.

djrabbi · 08-22-2011, 01:44 PM

Pending to me as long Nasty accepts my offer

Philipangoo · 08-23-2011, 01:11 AM

I measured from outside lip to outside lip across the wheel. So maybe I should just round down

fronts 10"?? Rears 10.5"??

Sorry to the guys that pm'ed me about the wheels that didn't get a response quick, I'm actually on vacation till the end of the month. I also have a guy locally that I'm waiting for to get back from a business trip that wants to trade me. If that deal falls through I'll let you all know. Thanks

djrabbi · 08-24-2011, 02:09 PM

10" fronts is pretty big......i think its 9.5 probably

That would make it a 9" front and 9.75" rear (wheels are measured inside the outer edges which are about .5").

Ok, thanks for the info, so I guess you guys can throw those offsets I previously stated out the window.

B. Gorman · 09-06-2011, 12:52 AM

9" Front/ 9.5" Rear!!!

djrabbi · 09-06-2011, 08:54 AM

Trade didn't work out, I test fitted the wheels I was trading for and the rears were too wide, they rubbed on the inside of the the tire well. too bad because the were some sick HRE's. So they are back up for sale ($2500 local Pick up) or trade. As for trades, I decided I only want to trade for similar quality wheels (HRE, DPE, CCW, Iforged etc.) 19 or 20". I know that will make it tougher for me to trade them but if all else fails I'll just end up buying spacers and slappin them on my car. We shall see.

novae500 · 09-07-2011, 10:49 AM

Keep the rims, they look tight on the car!!! These were the ones that i really wanted but ended up getting a set of 547s. Specs are from the seller for the HRE 547s i picked up on here.

Front Fitment 19x8.5 ET +29 RIMS 7/1.5
Rear Fitment 19x10 ET +33 RIMS 6.5/3.5

paul17 · 09-08-2011, 04:02 AM

Trade? for 19' Brabus monoblock S wheels ? with tires?

chawkins2001 · 09-08-2011, 09:24 AM

I will trade with you, my rubber is 90% and wheels have less than 200 miles, I just got them:

Tires were way more expensive than the rims and are super sticky, rears are 285-30-18, BFG KDW2's. Very aggressive tread

emoving · 09-11-2011, 03:10 PM

Get me the lips from Bgorman and the spacers and I will take them. I will have the lips done in Obsidian black and slap em on.

E...it was either the spacers or the lips! If you change the lips, you don't need spacers! Also, if you buy them....I will ship them directly to you (you will get them before you get the wheels)!

emoving · 09-11-2011, 03:35 PM

Nasty, lets do this! PM sent

MG21 · 09-12-2011, 05:12 AM

Just run the spacers in the rear. I had exact same situation. Had Brabus monoblock V's on my car and they fit perfect. Got some HRE 790's and the offset in the back was not nearly as agressive as the Brabus wheels. Got some 10 mm spacers and some extended wheel bolts and problem solved. Those are nice wheels bro, I would keep them if i was you.
