I've always been partial to the Kleeman TS6. Around $2k more than you want to spend but worth a look. Not something you will see very often.

Barry, let me sort out your wish list for you: this Christmas - AMG LSD, next Christmas - TS-6.

You mean the superlegras? those are very nice wheels. There is always HRE or Iforged if you want a custom wheel. Is that 4k including tires? or just wheels alone?

Let me know if i can help, i have a contact in Miami that can do the install for you sicne you may be local.

I just purchased the OZ Galileo III 3pc 19x8.5 front and 19x9.5 in the rear. They come in hopefully tomorrow. I'll take pics when I can. Does anyone know anything about spacers to lower the car??? People at the shop where I bought my rims recommended that I buy these spacers from MB that will lower the car to the desired height.

Nice wheels!

Spacers dont lower the car. I am assuming he means spring pads which you can get at your dealer parts dept. They are only for the rear though. With stock suspension, even if you were to get a #1 pad (smallest one) it will look odd because the rear will be to low to match the front. Unless of course you are not using stock suspsnsion.

Those kleemann wheels don't do much for me. I somehow find them to bland.
