there should be a brabus etching across from the valve stem on real brabus wheels

from the pic looks like it does have it by the spokes on the right on the top.

if it's real then that's a good price. just make sure it's not damaged or anything.

Great price if authentic and no curb rash. It looks authentic but make sure...because, those are 5g's rims he is selling for 1500 dollarz...need a closer look at the rim to make that distinction.. it does look like true multi piece..... I was told that the brabus cap does not fit all rims...they only fit brabus rims....but that could be a myth.....

$1,500 including used pilot sports is an excellent deal for authentic brabus monoblock vi's. from the picture, i can see the "brabus" logo to the right of the valve stem. the seller must be quite desperate to let these wheels go for $1,500...otherwise i'd be a little worried that they could be somehow damaged.

i have heard people who have experienced bent rims that were fixed at a wheel shop and despite being repaired, the wheel would produce a shaking effect at high speeds. but, i've never actually experienced this myself. my best advice to you is to ask the seller all the questions you need and be sure to document the responses, just in case you do run into some problems with these wheels.

Will BRABUS VI 19x9.5 fit in front???

Hello all I am getting rid of my 18" brabus VI because I want to get the deep dish 19's, I was wondering if the 19x9.5 would fit in the front? Im pretty sure the 19x10 will fit my back if I roll my fender. These rims are off of an E-class and I was wondering if they would fit my 2003 c-class??? Thanks in advance for your help guys.

Lets see:
1) How much of a turning radius do you want?
2) How much road garbage do you want splattered against the side of your car?
3) Are you for real?

The offset is different anyway. Wouldn't have worked either way. Anybody know where I should go for a good deal on some other 19" brabus' that will fit?? Thanks.
