I have these on the MB.

19x8.5 fronts
19x9.5 rears.

Concave is sweet. ET is so off though if you want to run the risk. I have loads of rubbing.

tasho3

What ET are you running? can you show me some pics of your car with them on?

I was gonna say, I'm no wheel expert, but judging by the concave, from what I've read on here I don't think those will work with the offsets on our cars. They are nice looking wheels though.

From looking at that link. I think you can get away with it. It says fronts are et45 and rears are et48.

I'm unning et35 front and back. That why/Reason for it to rub so much. But I have now changed to lower profile tyres and don't rub unless I have rear passengers.
Ride is still very smooth. I will take pix do you can see them on the ride an how the rim pokes out of the arch. I live in UK, I do worry if I get pulled over by police. I think it is illegal to run wheels outside the arches.

With the specs given in the description, your wheels will not look like the ones in the pictures. You will have less concave. Ones in the pictures have offsets probably within the 30s.

Kinda funny that you posted this. I am in the process of looking for rims myself and saw these the other night here http://www.elementwheels.com/proddet...er-mag1995mblk
If you do decide on these it may save you some $$$.

DEE-AMG

This is true also I think? Mine are et35 and the concave looks deep. With et48, I'm sure they will fit. But not as deep concave.

Another thing, from a distant, the alloys look small. Due to how the spokes end before the lip. Up close they look Amazing and huge.

Just another tip you may want to know?

I believe these alloys were released in 2011. So a fresh look. Quality is super I must say compared to reps I've had before.

thank you for your input guys. I love the concave on the pictures but the right offset for my car wont look like this, than I'll look into different wheels. again, thank you for your knowledge. Don't really know much about wheels.

^ the higher the offsets for any style RIM. You have less concaveness and/or size of lip.

jimmythegreek

you would have to get 9/10 F and R widths to get that concave look w our offsets. I like these wheels and also saw some wheels by STANCE that are sweet too, but I would never buy either cause of that stupid *** stamping into the wheel saying the name, they both have them. I dont get that, makes no sense kills the look of the wheels to me

Got home early from work today so decided to take a few quick pics to show you what the Vertini's look like.

Maybe get the shiny original outside trim sprayed in matt or gloss black

Remap

Hope I don't sound too

ENJOY!!










i do need to lower the car on some springs, but due to the offset being wrong, I have to wait until the brand new tyres get worn, then I can stretch to a lower profile tyre setup. As it stands, it doesn't look like a truck as the car is black, any other colour the gap would show and look disgusting.

Any advice or opinions open to discussion.

crazy1eye

Very nice... I'm also looking at getting a set of these, what tire sizes did you go with?

Thanks

DEE-AMG

I went with 225 35 19 fronts. No rubbing at all.

245 35 19 rears. Slight rubbin when I have 2 passengers.
Once the rear tyres are worn. I'm going for falkin 235 35 19 rears. I hope I can lower the car when I do this.

agedog2gt

What offset are you running in the rear, those rims look to be poking out at least an inch or more..

Why not return them for the correct offset? Sorry just curious bc i just ordered wheels tonight and not im worried these guys will send me wheels with a retarted offset.......

itsLoonie

He is running +35 front AND back as he stated before. Probably doesn't like the crappy offset we were given. I know I sure don't.

DEE-AMG

I wanted a deep concave and running higher offsets means it won't be as deep.

I knew I would have problems putting these wheels on the Benz. Its not too bad just have to be slightly more careful round bends and potholes. But when you see these in person. It puts a nice on your face.
Pix don't do it justice on how deep these go.
