Lu: yeah my car looks like that too, maybe even a little lower. go to the pic thread on page 3 to get a glimpse of my car.

Eurosport: your rub might be a combo of your offset and tires. I hear the SO3's run a little wider (I got Kuhmo's).

Maybe we should get together tomorrow. I'm free for the day.

Eurosport:

Your wheels are badass!!! I was really impressed on how they look on your car. We have to meet up again and do a photo shoot.

Later,

you got that right
old S-02 and S03 are the only 2 tires that I have seen so far has very thick rim protection ring.
Causing the side wall near the rim lip bulging out.

That's why the section width on these tires are generally larger/wider. (not necessarily larger/wider track width than other brand though !)



BTW Eurosport
What is the spec on the wheel again width and offset..?

The rim looking good, I like it..

Regardz,

I saw Eurosport's car last week, and the wheels are hot! Definitely a head turner, and still keeping the AMG theme.
