Nice! Why did you choose P-Zero Nero over others?? What's the wheel specs on those 546R's? Width? Lip inches?

you got 2.5 inch lip all around?? since you did get 8.5 in front and 9.5 in back. i'd assume you get more lip in back??

btw... i check the prices online from tirerack. the price for 265/30/19 was around 280. where did you get it for 225???

Thanks guys, can't wait to see them on the as well. I won't need spacers the wheels are built to specs and i had the specs modified to account for the 2" drop with the H&R cupkits. With the regular specs, the wheels would generally rub with the H&R suspension from the inside, but Peter modified the specs to account for this and pushed the wheels out a lil. I actually picked up the wheels and couldn't tell if they are heavier.. i think they were wayyy lighter then the Brabus wheels i have on the CLK55.

I have about 2k miles on my P Zero Neros. The tires are great. Look at the tire tests at The Tire Rack. I have not put them through my track testing yet.

TP

F 42 psi

R 37 psi

Hey Tejan, the wheels look great, thanks for everything. be sure to post some pics when everything gets done.

If you have any problems along the way, please feel free to let me know.

The front lip is 1.5", rear is 2.5" - HRE does not make anything smaller than a 1.5" reverse outer.
