quality is decent on these. no need for spacers if you don't have the BBK, but from your sig it looks like you have the C32 caliper which you will need spacers for these.

your carlsson rims should fit with the stock lug bolts. My set of carlssons did and i had them on c230 for two years. However when I put them on my C32 ,the bolts were a different size. I don't have them on now, but if i did I would have to get a professional to see what length bolts I would need front and rear

hmmm i'm also considering these but i also like the ASA AR1 and i just feel like the ASA rims are better quality just b/c they are made by BBS plus the AR1s are light as hell but i dk input?

Anyone rockin Flik wheels from edgeracing.com??

Anyone rockin Flik wheels from edgeracing.com?? If so post some pics.. i know Flik wheels are popular in the VW/Audi Group... I put in 2003, Mercedes, C class and a few popped up i'm not good at photoshop so can someone do a quick photoshop for me. I'm interested in the FLIK Hornets or Artics in black with chrome lip... but not sure how they would look on the W203. Thinkin bout goin 18's these seem cheaper than ASA AR1's. Flik's are very lightweight also which i like.

Thanks for the tips guys, I got in touch with a tire shop and they said they could help with the measurements. I hope to have the wheels on soon.

i just installed the wheels miyself, and kept cutting down the bolts untill it fit, that way you are garunteed not to get a diff thread

as long as the bolts can still tighten 4 revolutions, you'll be fine.


Happy Belated Birthday Jesus

dmaclang,

Your thread got merged with this one because you asked the same question on the same wheels. Lets try and not start multiple threads for the same thing.

those are the carlsson 2/5
the specs are right for a w203, i am running the same ones now...you may rub if its lowered, but it will clear your BBK without a spacer

you;ll be fine, I had those same rims on my old C230. The carlsson;s fit on my c32;s front wheel fine but I didn;t have the right bolts. Hoe much did you pay for the rims?

Looks good. Put your flame suit on or get rid of the chrome tail light surrounds.
