Is this anyone's car on here? Are those 18" or 19"?

 

Those look like 19" TSW Bremmas.

 

Thanks Matt. Trying to decide between your MRR GT-1's and the Bremma's and also 18" or 19". That makes 4 options.

 

it depends what you're looking for. 18"s are better for performance. 19"s are all for looks. Both the Bremmas and GT-1 are good aftermarket wheels: cheap, pretty good quality, and are pretty popular.

Color might be another option for you. Clean look with the silver or murdered look with the black.

 

Yea. I'm definitely going silver. Do you have any other pictures of your car?

 

I have a lot of pics, but haven't found time to upload them and edit. Here are a few of how they look currently:

Does anyone know anything about these rims "Ronal 41R7805060" Are they OEM Mercedes wheels or what?

Thanks,

Those dont look OEM to me, I've never seen some MB wheels like that. -

 

I know that specific one doesn't look OEM but Ronal does make AMG, Lorinser wheels right? Or does Ronal mean something else?

That one is called the RONAL R41

 

This one looks pretty nice

 

Yeah quick search of that specific one looks aftermarket. I dont see them on any MB, just random cars.

 

I LOVE the new WORK VS-MS, really makes me want to paint my wheels sometime of gold. I might do them in champagne gold like my old Volks I had on my honda. It was actually an old MB color code I got. Might have to order a couple of cans to paint the wheels.

 

Damn!!!! That G35 looks sickkk!!! Take that over the lady anyday of the week

Gold will look great. Milkman wanted to paint his wheels gold but he never did.

 

Yeah, I looked up my old color I painted my wheels and plan on ordering a couple of cans. So have to remove my rivets again and repaint them. I think I'm going to do the lip black chrome and the face champagne gold. and do the rivets maybe champagne too to make them pop against the lip. Oh... also almost done with my intake!!! Woot, just have to line up my hood ducts and cut that hood up.

 

Thanks for the reply,

The lady said they were on her CLK and she wants $150 for all 4 rims. They look the same as above just in silver.

 

That'll look great, I can't wait to see the wheels. on the intake. I can't wait to see that too. Man we signed up at the same time and your car is just a different ballgame. I'm soo jealous

Hey did you ever do the differential swap?

 

I did some digging and found that Ronal is the large wheel manufacturer in Germany that a lot of car companies including MB use. Ronal manufacturers the wheels and MB just puts their logos on them.

 

Ronal certainly make some Benz wheels (and shower cabinets) as do TSW. Most AMG wheels are made in Austria.

 

Cale told me we have to remove the whole hub assembly to remove the axle from diff. I haven't had time to look at it to see theres a way to drop the diff and slide the axle off from the diff instead of having to remove the whole axle from the hub and diff. I think if I can drop it low enough I can pry the axle off from the diff and hopefully press it back in.

Cars will have to be down for a day when I take the wheels off to repaint them, wish i hadnt sold my ClS wheels. I might have to look for another set of wheels just as spares for the winter and for long road trips.

your cars has come a good ways too Karo Love your new color of wheels and brakes setup.

 

Hi, I'm a newbie to mbworld.org forum, just want to share a little bit here. but love all the info you all have posted here. thanks!!
since i currently running in the same wheel specs, i feel like to share it. there's no spacers, but a little rolling fenders need indeed in the rear.
but i added 14mm spacer in the rear, so i can get a flush look

 

I am about to buy this wheel and tire package online. can anyone think of a reason they won't fit? 05 230k ss.
Lorenzo WL21: 18x9.5
***:: 5x112 :: 35mm offset :: rear

Lorenzo WL21: 18x8
***:: 5x112 :: 32mm offset :: Front

Pirelli P Zero Nero M+S
**** (225/40R18) front

Pirelli P Zero Nero M+S
**** (255/35R18) rear

 

you might have to get a 5mm spacer upfront to clear the calipers but it depends on how the wheel is designed, if the spokes will rub the caliper or not. Also make sure the bore is 66.6. Other than that it should be ok. Good choice of tires, I had those on my CLS wheels and they handled great.

 

I was searching by vehicle so I am assuming on the center bore as it was not listed. where is the best place to pick up spacers? and are there any brands to stay away from?

 

Ichiba or H&R are good companies to get spacers from.

 

Ok Ok...found some wheels with these specs

19x8.5 +32 front
19x9.5 +30 rear

Can I fit these on an 05 C230K SS? I don't plan on lowering the car at all, but I'm mostly concerned if whether or not the fronts are too wide and if the rear offset of +30 will work.

Also, recommend tire size? I was thinking 225/35 and 245/35 for a little bit of stretch.

TIA
