20x9 and 10 +35 all around.. I decided it's not aggressive enough. I have not driven the black series...Unfortunately I am not that baller. It's still on break in period though so I am faster than it. . It's an amazing car though.
edit: disclaimer: yes I know my tires are on backwards.

500 SL R129 and R 320 CDI W251
Norweagian CL 500
With German RH wheels,
9 + 10x20
Really had to "operate" to get those wheel in. Originally ET40 offset, but had to use a 10 mm spacer, and had to shave a little bit off the rear brake calliper.
Lowering from adjustable airride
Sorry about the size of the pictures, don't get like that on other forums....
Any maoderators who can help?

With that design on the back rims, with the big "lip", the brake calliper hits the spokes in the rims. Even with the 10 mm spacer it rubbed. The surface where the rim meets the car is just not building enough "up" from the spokes.....if you understand what i try to explane (pardon my french )

We have to remember that we are talking about a few milimeters here. Just the curve of the spokes, thickness and other design differences does this I guess.....
