Here are my specs...
Front: 20x8.5 et 47
Rear:20x10 et 51

Running Falkins...
Front:255x20x25 (don't remember could be 245x20x25)
Rear: 275x20x25

I'm running KWv3s as well.

Someone should chime in on the front tire specs cuz my car is in the states and I'm in Taiwan.

Jae Duk, are you running heavy camber at the rear or flared guards? Your set up is very aggressive! Can you post a picture?

Cambers were okay for a while. I kept it stock, but after having KWs I had to get alignment and camber done. No problems on stock suspension, no tire rub. On KWs I can only fit 3 people. There isn't any tire rub with 3 people (providing they're not all heavy), but occasionally you will scrape with 3 people in the car (front).

Unfortunately like I said my car is in the states and the time I'm there...I'm busy driving the car more than taking pics of it. So currently I do not have an up to date pic.

BTW I believe if you wanted to fit 20s you have to have the offset that high.

Wheels look great but I can't see myself putting Volks on a German car. It might sound silly, but I associate Volks with Japanese import tuners just as I associate HREs with high-end German cars.

Obviously to each his/her own, still very nice looking wheels.

Lovin the look!

I like the fact that people are opening up to more respectable JDM wheels on the benz's.

I like the style and reasonably light-weight!

A little unsure how Formula Silver will turn out! But it'll be another 2 months until I find out as they have to be shipped from Japan to Australia!
