Would getting a rear window spoiler and having a trunk spoiler be redundant? Or would it increase traction by a lot..?

edit: And yeah.. whats wrong with stock rims? Tonight I'll go out and take a picture of mine =)

ramenbuoy

Stock rims at their finest =)

he is just a little kid. I got money that your daughter has waaaaaay more sense than him.

ramenbuoy

I do ask some dumb questions, but not all the time. The traction thing was meant to be sarcastic.... I did not think at the time that you guys would take me seriously. But why does everyone think I want to trade straight up? Are you kidding? I work at an investment firm, I know the value of things, and I am not retarded =)

Sorry that I came off as a retard.

Sometimes smart people can sound so stupid.

nlpamg

it's not just this post where you come off as a retard. it's the majority of your posts.

look at this post:
https://mbworld.org/forums/showthrea...21#post2360521

nowhere on the post do you indicate that you'll add money. it sounds like you just want to trade straight up.

just because you work as a mailboy or coffee getter at an investment firm doesn't mean you know the value of things.

i just dont see spending all that extra thousands in a set of authentic brabus wheels. The authentic chrome ones look exactly the same as mine i just chose not to put the brabus center caps on. i can see people spending for a real set of HRE's because they are 3 piece wheels. I rather use the extra cash for other mods or save it up for something else. Wheels are wheels if i put you blind folded in a car with authentic brabus wheels and did the same thing with the same car with replicas i guarantee you won't be able to the difference. The ride is the same, handling is the same. It just all depends on how good the replicas are. Btw stop hating

Blake P

This gets my vote for the most ignorant post of 2007. If "wheels are wheels" you should have just kept the stock ones on there. You're right on the money with the blindfold thing, though...because I'd definitely want to be wearing one around your car.

LOL THATS HARSH!
I think we all know what he meant, he just phrased it poorly. Having Authentic mods, for some people, is an automatic bragging right and they think that it makes them better than the people with replicas. I'm all for having authentic wheels if I can afford it. But BRABUS wheels specifically, I would not buy the authentic ones ONLY because there are so many replicas flooding the market.

Blake P

There's no talking sense into someone who can justify buying replica. They're the same ones who will show no shame in wearing a replica Rolex and have their wife sporting replica handbags. If I can't afford the real thing, I don't buy it, simple as that.

kevblah

hmm i know what you mean, i HATE the people with fake chanel bags and glasses etc. my philosophy is...if you cant afford the real thing, dont pose!

but i feel differently about the brabus reps for some reasoN! haha

Blake P

There is absolutely no difference bro. There are plenty of lower priced wheels (same goes for jewelry, handbags, clothing, etc) out there that aren't blatant knock-offs.

kevblah

so what do you think about my replica c55 spoiler?
( i dont know why im fighting someone elses fight, my wheels are authentic mandrus! Youre just mad cuz u paid too much! Haha)

Blake P

"Too much" is paying ANY price for fake $h*t.

kevblah

people dont look at brabus rims and assume they're authentic, at least i dont. since the majority of the ones out there are replica, i assume everyone has replicas frabus wheels! so whos laughing now? hows it feel to know you paid thousands more than what everyone thinks you paid?!?!!

Blake P

It makes me feel like my opinion of you is changing pretty quick. While I once considered you an intelligent contributor to this forum, I am beginning to consider you a certified idiot. BTW, I sold my Brabus for more than I paid...so yea, I'm still laughing.

kevblah

You're going to have to face the truth. Not EVERYONE is going to be buying authentic Brabus wheels and in fact, the majority will be buying FRABUS wheels...but that doesn't mean you have to insult them or anything. It's all to achieve a look anyways, right? SO...to each his own, authentic or not.

BTW, let's just say that I didn't exactly pay full price for my wheels either. More like 71% off.
