Nice wheels Harris. Are they chromed or polished? Very unique. What happened to the LM's from Japan?

Harris,

Those wheels are really nice and I especially like the design of the spokes very pimp.

I am not a fan of the chrome center as you may know but I still think it looks great.

I thought you were going to get the HRE race treated wheels?? How come you went with these? What are you going to do with your BBS? Are they for sale? Will they accomodate a BBK? Let me know.

Congrats on the new wheels.

Prasith

I've NEVER been a chrome wheel lover, in fact, I hate chrome wheels. But guess what, I bought a set of chrome wheels for my car! My BBS got a few scratches, so I think its time to have a change and get something different. This is my 5th set of wheels during my 34 months of C32 ownership. I was going to get the HRE competition series, but HRE wont have them available until the fall (which I dont have that kind patience). After the opening of Hartonmotorwerks, I am dealing with wheels everyday, I think I have seen it all (if not 99% of it). GFGs are very rare on MBs, I have only seen them once or twice on a MB. For a fuzzy guy who always want that "unique" look, I have to pick this. I originally wanted the silver with polished lip, but that will take another 3 months. Thats why I reluctantly settling for the chrome. I like the diamond shape holes in between spokes A LOT and I think this is the only 19x9.5 wheel in the market that can give you a 3" lip on the rear!!!! Everything is just a direct bolt on, no spacers, no fender modification. Well, I dont expect everyone to like them, as long as I am happy with my purchase, I dont really give a damn of what other people think.

Prasith, my BBS are for sale, but someone will most likely to buy it. They do clear the AMG calipers on our car without any spacers, but they wont clear the Brembo calipers.
