Velocity is doing some testing to make sure these will work on our cars with all the specs I have proposed, so hopefully they will have an answer for us this week and we can officially begin the GB. Once we open it for deposits, we'll probably leave it open for a week or two. Get that car ASAP!

Yea, there seems to be a decent market for the 07 Sport wheels right now since they're new and most likely will only be a 1 year production run.

HRE caps would be a big .
Thanks for the props. I'm doing my best to make sure the MB community has a chance at getting these great looking wheels, otherwise it's just the BMW and Audi boys having all the fun. I'll take you off the list.

I confirmed in the R129 forum the above wheels will fit, however they warned me the bolts that come with the wheels are likely to long for my W203. Even though the new wheels are larger diameter, are wider, and have a different offset will the stock bolts still work okay? I guess my questions is, is it more the axle that determines how long the bolts need to be or the offset and width of the wheels, I'm concerned b/c I read some posts about wrong length of bolts messing up peoples brakes, any info would be helpful thanks. If neither bolts are correct, most tire shops should be able to figure out the correct length needed correct? And have them on hand?
