It's funny, I was whole heartedly against going all black when I started and then piece by piece it slowly ended up this way. I have absolutely zero complaints though.

Thanks, I'm really happy that it turned out how I pictured it. The black hood ornament was something that I never see other people doing, so its a nice touch.

I actually went through USA Rim out of CA. I have to say that the shipping was really fast and they were very helpful, however they sent me a set of 35 offsets for the rear instead of the 45's. I contacted them to make sure that they wouldn't rub because they were going straight to the powder coaters and despite what they said, they rub. We are trying to resolve it currently.

Let me know what they do, because I wouldn't want to rub. If 45 offset is available then lets see what they'll do.

Unfortunately you've posted under the wrong area, you should be posting under the W203 section.

So after a decent amount of arguing points, the distributor and I settled on a deal where I payed basically cost for two more rear rims in a 45 offset (shipped). They wouldn't exchange them (as I expected) because they were powder coated, even though I originally stressed that they were getting powder coated before going on the vehicle and he assured a perfect fit (with the 35 offset). New ones just arrived in the right size and are going to the powder coater tomorrow. So if you know anyone who wants two black AMG replicas that might rub, let me know lol.
Also the lugs they originally sent me were too long, just enough to tap on the e-brake so they sent 50mm ones to fix it.
