hi, If your within that $1500-2000 price range with tires, theres really not TOO much you can choose from. try your best to stay away from bling, unless ur in love with chrome.

replica brabus mono VI seems very popular. you can probably get a set with tires for a little less than 2k.

but as drex had said, check out the aftermarket modification threads. you can also check out the picture sticky, see what kind of rims you like. then maybe PM the owner for their pricing and info.

drex, you should save that as a text file, lol.

but i have one more suggestion. the quickest and probably easiest way is to check with tirerack or another sponsor from this site.

(when you open a thread you see something little right below the mb-world banner on top saying "View the Advertiser Index").

Brabus makes a Mono VI in one piece or two piece. The two piece cost twice as much as the one piece which for 18" it's around $600 per rim. Not all that expensive.

first, i'm from HK, now in NY

right, if they are from china, forget it
see i'm chinese, i'm driving a MB

taiwan product, ok
but they have made many replica for the japanses car
and you don't want your rims look like japanese rims.

so i don't suggest you buy from HK
and i assume you didn't look at them personally.

A lil' off topic, So what is Taiwan R.O.C.?

What's the difference between the replica products of Taiwan againts China? I assume cheaper material that leads to bad quality?

R.O.C stands for Republic of China. Taiwan originally a state of China (People's republic of China) has been operating under it's own for 95 years, only that China doesn't want to recognize the fact that Taiwan has been it's own country for all these years. It's westernized political system is far more advance than China. As far as manufacturing factories etc China is about 20-25 years behind Taiwan.

few cool facts, Chin-Ming **** of NY Yankees is from Taiwan. For Olympics, Taiwan has to join the competition as "R.O.C" and uses plum blossom flower like symbol and white flag. Taiwan can't use it's red/white/dark blue flag because China won't allow it.

UGLY, Frank! What did you do to that C32? Horrible... Showoff!

In all seriousness, great choice moving away from the Carlsson's. The DCR's make the car stand out just a 'bit more and a 'bit more aggressive.
