Depending if the wheels are 3 piece or 2 piece you can just buy new barrels and rebuild them. I'm ordering 3.5" outter lip for the rear to push mine to 10.5" and contemplating getting 2.5" for the front to do 9.5" in front.

Hello!
Even the SL rims are looking so fancy. Without your picture I could not imagine that.
But the new barrels.....man unbe****inglievable!!!!
Keep doing that!

obrigado palma
about the wider wheels..aero II dont have new barrels or new wider lips on the market.
I just could do that with custom work of a company at portugal, they "extrude" de lip in alluminium..so its an expensive but effective option and with that you can do exclusive wheels.
its raining in portugal, so I cant take decent pictures..but they are allready on my w203

thanks istván. the answer is on page 2:
"about my wheel specs, they are 17", 9" et53 in front with 25mm H&R spacers. they are really really close from the damper (koni) and really on the limit of the arches..
at the rear, I have 10" et40 with 20mm's spacers. fit perfect with stretched tyres, if I had wider tyres it will rubb I think..
front tyres are 225 45 and rears are 245 40. wish I have lower profile tyres , like 215 40 and 245 35, but for legal reasons in Portugal, I have to use the OEM tyre size "

Do you have more pics of the SL rims on your car? I have an opportunity to get a set really cheap near me. What thing do I need to make them fit right?

thanks istván!
well, if someone see this post and could help me...I will apreciate a lot..
so, could someone post here one really lowered car on H&R coilovers? My question is, I have 5/6cm lowered car (comprimid springs) in front and 4cm at rear..
do the H&R coilovers lower really more?
