+1 for a solid seller...I'm sure I'll be back, just need to figure out where I want to be. He'll do what it takes to make the wheels work on the right car and does GREAT quality work. Stayed in communication until the wheels and tires were on the car and rolling down the road.
Thanks!
Thanks!

I may be looking for something for racing before the year is out. (Crossfire SRT-6) Light, strong and 18". Around 8" in the front and 10" in the rear. I'll be in touch when I'm ready.

This one???? This is an HRE that was a custom two tone powder coat job by the guy that does my powder coating.
The center is candy red with Matte Black windows!!! This was just for a display wheel to advertise his ability

That's a combo-colour-killer wheels there Bill. I bet they look awesome when you put that HRE on Black or White W203/W204...

Don't let offsets, sizes, or widths stop you from buying a great set of used wheels!!!
Let me Modify them to fit your car for you.
There are so many great deals on the board from myself and other members.....don't let them get away.
It doesn't matter if you buy wheels from me...or another member....
I will modify the wheels for you to fit whatever model mercedes you have for the best price around....
with a quick turn around (as long as parts are in stock).
I will also give you a small credit for your old wheel parts (as long as they are in decent shape).
You can ship them to me, or if your local you can drop them off at the shop!!!

Looks good. Are you going to do a video that shows some actual wheel refinishing equipment? Or is it all subbed out and then you just do re-assembly? Also, just curious, what's the source of your rim halves?

All I do is dis-assembly, design, and re-assembly (and some occasional polishing) at my shop.
Powder Coater is next door and Polisher is up the street !!
Rim parts are from the same manufacturers that are used by 90% of the wheel manufacturers here in the USA.
On another note, rebuilding a 3 piece wheel is not that difficult !
Definitely not rocket science...LOL.
It is however a bit time consuming to do it the right way.....and takes a few connections to do it efficiently.
Tools Needed (which we have at the shop):
1. Sockets and Ratchets
2. Air and electric Impacts
3. Common Sense (most important)
4. Grinder (sometimes you gotta get medieval)
5. Rubber Mallet
6. Torque Wrenches
7. Tire Machine
8. Balancing Machine (with run out measuring)
Other Necessities:
Industrial Sealant (No you can't get it at Auto Zone or Home Depot )
Lots of elbow grease
More Common Sense
Connections for parts, coating, stripping, polishing, and chroming (or it can get expensive )
Patience
