i've came to the conclustion that black wheels just look better in person.

i went through a stage where i loved the millenium wheel, then i hated them, now i am back to liking them again. i think they might look better in silver- however that's not the best picture to showcase a wheel i guess.

i looked all over today- i can't find a picture anywhere of the stuttgard mounted on anything. looks somewhat promising- but it's hard to tell w/o seeing it on a car.

You'll have to find out if the centers were bored to Audi spec since Audis have smaller hubs than MB. I'm not sure if DPE makes their wheels hubcentric to fit the specific car or bores the centers larger and uses hub rings to fit a specific car, but you definitely need to find out.

You tell us. Will it work?
LINK: OFFSET CALCULATOR

Just to refresh everybody's memory (or for newbies that still haven't read from the beginning of this thread, there is a link to the offset calculator and to a tire calculator to help make your decisions about purchasing rims.

Then, it's as easy as going out to your car and measuring.

unless you can try it before you buy it, or have seen pictures of the wheels mounted- i wouldn't chance it. the calculator isn't always right. i bought wheels that were the "correct" offset and tire size (32mm F, 35mm R and 235F, 265 R)- but they still didn't clear the calipers on my car.



anyone able to find a picture of the stuttgards?

lol I wasn't trying to make fun of just you. I too moderate on another board and would go crazy if I saw all these questions and was expected to answer them. I'll spoon feed you since Drex needs a vacation. If you are running coilovers spacers will be needed to clear the front suspension. Rears maybe fine but not flushed to the fender. If the wheels are hubcentric w/o rings to an Audi they would need to be bore out since MB's have a larger hub. I would recomended looking for another set designed to fit your car.

I was so shocked to see what they were!

Only difference with mine is the 19X10 in the rear. Other than that, definitely worth the price he's selling at.

Dood, I feel for you and have seen your ad. You are trying to sell snow in winter.

Sharp wheels all the same. Good luck.

offsets seem ok but you may have a problem with clearing the calipers. It depends on how much wheel pad the rim has. Basically is amount of clearance from the mounting surface and the back of the spokes. I remember in the past a couple people have that problem with other AXIS wheels.

We could say yes, but nobody really knows until you try it. I'm more worried about the 40mm rear offset...you might need a 5mm spacer.
