Quote: I am very happy with the Yokohama's. They loose grip very gradually and are very controllable. In standard mode the traction light still comes on quite a bit, but I drive it in Sport most of the time and it is very easy to dose then. I only have about 1,700 miles on them so cannot say yet, what mileage I will get.


The rear rims are 19x10 with an offset of 25 and 295/30/19 tires. The front rims are 19x9 with an offset of 35 and 255/35/19. However, that turned out too conservative, so I am running them with 15mm spacers. I should have ordered the rims with a 20 mm offset.
Honestly, you don't even need 20mm as those 25mm rears look super aggressive.

I'm sure it must command lots of attention when on the road.

Overrated,


my comment on 20 offset was regarding the front rims, and the way you see them in the picture was with 12 mm spacers already (outer edge as with 23 offset). That is why I am saying the ideal front rim offset would have been around 20. Agree the rears are fine with 25.

Wobble64,

Just finishing up my wide body kit and wondering if there was any market for the old parts. I will be selling the black 507 wheels. I also have the bumber covers and fender panels and wasn't sure if it's worth the effort to sells those or just let the body shop have them.

Thanks!

I sold a few things only - wheels, daylight running lights. Most is difficult to ship. I also did only get a few things back from the body shop, but even so, I threw things out.

Wheels seem like the only item worth the effort. Did you get $3,300 for your wheels?

Quote: my god..looks so beautiful! One question, how did you buy those "original" parts? I thought deals don't sell BS parts to any other car, but a BS that needs to be fixed. Also, who hooked your car and uploaded these stuff a normal garage or the MB dealer? I just also wish converting mine if it wasn't expensive tho :P waiting to hearing from you soon

cheers,
El-Debs

got a kit for sale. you should take a look at it if you're in the bay area. wouldn't be as expensive as you originally thought.
