Oi, I just found out those sl65 rims are on page 4. 
Anyway, I was photoshopping C63 amg rims, 5 spoke ones, which looked great on the car. I remember hunting for them and finding some replicas, some one had a link to their site. I believe they were those rims with the AMC instead of the AMG.
-Anyone know the style name for these rims?
I'm trying to find a quote for the C63 replicas.
And the dealer is closed so I didn't get a chance to call in and ask them the question. I'm itching to get the style name so I cannot wait for tomorrow.

i don't know about the rear, but frank i think has a beefy tire set up. i think it was 235/40 and 265/35 in the rear. or was it 275? i had 235's on my 8.5'' fronts and 265's in the 9.5 rears, and i was rubbing in the back real bad, even when i rolled my fenders.

i have the 235/40/18 and 265/35/18 on my car right now.
on 19's I've already ran 235/35/19 and 265/30/19. rolling your fender's always recommended and a 35 offset on 19x9.5 or 19x10 rear is also recommended. anything higher or lower offset will cause excessive rubbing.

2004 C240 (lightly modded)
I have been looking at a wheel made by Bremmer Kraft. The model is BR 01... They are silver with a machined lip. I think they look great and would show off my s/d rotors. I just don't know a lot about this company. The wheels are inexpensive, but I know that might not always mean poopr quality. Anybody have experience with them?
ANYBODY heard of these?

Aftermarket Wheels and Warranty
Tire tread is getting low (23K on the OEM PS-2's), so Im gonna get a set of 18’’ Mandrus Mannheim with BFG G-forces.
Will this void anything on my factory warrantee?

shouldn't. the only stretch i could possibly see them making might be something to do with the 4matic (if you car even has it). for the most part- whatever you replace with aftermarket, only voids the warranty of that particular part. certainly there are some exceptions- but mods within reason are usually fine.

tough to find them on ebay.
i would call them, but they seem expensive.
so i guess i have to give up on them, and look for something else.

Cool - I just wanna be sure that if I have break problems, or something along those lines, they wont point to the aftermarket wheels and give me some BS about not fixing it...

NO!! 275 maybe, 265 safer - 285 must rub - let Frank comment. He knows better than me
