19" wheel spacer question for '05 SS Komp.
okay I did a search and came up with nothing. I'm in the market to get some 19" wheels. I was looking at either authentic Brabus Monoblock VI, or the replicas.
Being that retail for the real ones run $5500, I might end up getting replicas.
But the guy at the wheel shop tells me that I'll need spacers for the replicas because of the bigger brake caliper on the '05 models.
I was wondering if anyone else has replicas and had to put on spacers.

C32 ///AMG
heres what u gotta do for the brabus rep's. I have a c32 which also has bigger brakes like your car. If your lookin at 19's you have to go with 32 offset in the front and 35 in the rear. Anything higher than 32 in the front and youll smack the brakes. You can go lower but good luck finding a set of reps lower than 32. I got 19x8.5 32 offset in the front and 19x9.5 35 offset in the back with the 2.5 inch lip and they fit perfect without any spacers....hope this helps
