Where did you get these if you don't mind me asking, Those would be perfect to do a better HID Projector retrofit!

Did you install them yet?
Have any Pics?

Thanks guys. The Enkei's are ultra light (<20lbs.), clear the Sport calipers, and are modestly priced. I highly recommend them. The Michelin Pilot Super Sports too. They are priced better than the PS2's and get noticeably sticky once they're warm. Supposedly last longer too, but we'll see...

I love the look of those wheels, and was about to buy them, but the guy at the wheel shop said they are soft and prone to bending.

So far (1+ yr.) no trouble out of them. I do live in a more rural area with good roads, so they might not be the best choice for urban or winter-weathered roads. 18" tires give you a little more protection than 19's. Check out http://www.enkei.com/pf01.html or talk to King at Enkei HQ.

Thanks man.

The wheels are 18x8.5 ET32 (front) and 18x10 ET36 (rear). I did not specify any offset to forgestar, simply said that I wanted the wheels to sit as flush to the fender while staying within the warranty limits of the wheel. They could have given me an offset to stick the wheel farther out, but they would not have issued me a warranty.

The DogWagon received some new kicks today :-)









AMG replicas with Hankook Ventus V2 225/45/17. Yes, a bit high in the front. Will be remedied soon.

Thanks for the info. Those are good specs and they look great. Always been a big fan of Forgestar.

That's the first w203 i've seen in that color. Looks smart, and certainly accented nicely with those modifications. Congrats
