Hello,

I already have some info on new MonoBlock S. Because it's design it's a good rim to show off your Big Brake Setup.

I wanted to put to the SportCoupe 7.5J*18 225/40 and 8.5J*18 245/35.

1.- One thing very stange is that Brabus put in his brochure that 8J*17' ET30 don't work with the CDI; and I have those rims installed with C30CDI brakes without any problem. (see pic)

2.- The front rims 7.5J*18 have an offset of 38 after using a 16mm spacers. I'm not sure if they will clear the AMG 4 pistons calipers with such offset, and a 54mm original offset rim???? (It's sounds like it's a rim for an other car, no?).

3.- If you look to the rims nearly all need some spacer... (I don't like this).

Monoblock S have good price.

Best Regards.

 

I heard the newer Brabus aren't made by them anymore??

 

Probably made by Brabus of Taiwan. Their booth at HIN sucked.

 

I think that Brabus has never done rims; the Monoblock VI where made by Ronal.

Best Regards.

 

I'm actually starting to like this new design. lip or no lip, it's pretty hott.

 

I agree with nlpamg, that new design is HOT! :v

 

I like a lot the new design; what I don't like is to have to use a 16mm spacer front and a 20 mm spacer rear to have a setup that still has the rims too inside the car.

At front Monoblock S 37mm offset vs Monoblock VI 30mm offset (actual).

 

that new design is very nice, i dont know about the other one they also came out with though

I think the VI is still better looking than the S

re up

 

I just received them.

They are made by ronal.

11Kilograms 7.5
12Kilograms 8.5

 

In the real life they look a LOT different that in the pics; they reaseamble the BBS CH.

 

that looks pretty good man!

pretty original...

when are you gonna get tires? :p

 

Tuesday I receive Pilot Sport 2 XL.

As fas as I can see they are lighter than monoblock VI.

Best Regards.

 

The wheels look really good
It sucks that they already have the cheap knockoff's

 

They have gone very fast to make a replica !!!!!

When I get the tires I will try to make a pic that reflect the real life.

Best Regards.

 

Hey,

These wheels look really nice in 18's.
Who makes the replicas and what company sells them?

 

WOW BRABUS BBK. WOW !! That must have cost a fortune

 

Yeah they look pretty good in 18's, the face looks bigger since the spokes come further out and the face isn't as flat as other brabus wheels.
I found the Frabus clones on ebay today. $800 for a set with brabus caps
For those who are interest in these heres the link.
They are nice but I don't believe in putting fake wheels on a Benzo.

Yes, those rims do look nice! Post pics once you get the tires on them.
