Guys I'm sellling my wheels, located in OC, Cali,. Preferably local pick up, if you need to see the wheels in person please let me know. As you all know I go to a lot of car shows so they're in very good condition, no curb crash. The front tires are worn out more than the rear because I was rubbing in the front, but they're still good for a long time, I don't know how to tell how much tread left so come and check them out. The wheel offsets are custom to give you the maximum lip and flush with the fenders. Here's the spec

- $3,000 w/ Tires (originally wheels $3,500 + tires $1,200)
- 6 months old
- iForged Senekas 3pc Forged
- Brushed aluminum finish with high polish lips
- Front 19x8.5 32mm offset (2" lip)
- Rear 19x10 27mm offset (3" lip)
- Toyo T1-S High performance tires
- 235-35-19
- 265-30-19

Please e-mail me at LowRydeR@***.net . I hope my senekas can go to a good home, I really like them a lot but I'm getting a new set of wheels for a new look. I need 4-6 weeks for my new set to be made so you cannot take the wheels home right away, I appolagize, but it gives you a little more time to get the money. Thanks

Regards,
Bruce

those wheels are tight bruce... what are you getting next? HRE?

where ya'll get all this money from????

BlackC230Coupe

After hearing 4-6 weeks for new ones, i can guess they will probally be HRE's, thats the time frame they quoted me.

Would these wheels fit the C230?

mmgrad

i would think that most custom made wheels would take several weeks to make.

Bruce, since you've only kept these for 6 months, and you seem to get new wheels all the time, I should just start saving my money to buy your used wheels everytime you get new ones...

BlackC230Coupe

Ture, except for IForged, I hear those take a little longer than 4-6 weeks to make.

I still want to know which one's hes getting next. I wish he was selling HRE's, I would have already paid him. Or somehow I am loving the SSR GT3's staggered 19" setup.

mmgrad

SSR GT3 in 19"??? the last i checked, they don't make a 19" application for Benzos... they have it for BMWs, but not in 5x112... i think the largest size in GT3 for MB is 18".....

Where have you found them in 19s???

ok, i just checked... i guess they make the GT3s in 19s for MB now... i swear they never had it...

I was going to get some 18 or 19 GT1 about 8 month back, cause the guy was getting rid of it for DIRT CHEAP(the whole set for the price of 1 wheel)... but, it looked a little bit too... empty? Wheels for MB typically carry a somewhat larger face, so I decided to pass on it...

BlackC230Coupe

Yeah, i think at first the only GT3's for the Mercedes were 18's, but on the tire racks site they show the 19s fit, and i called luke at the tire rack today and was about 1 seconed away from ordering the 19's in the staggered steup, only i will wait a couple more weeks till i get some more cash.

I never really like the GT1's but damn, all 4 for the price of 1!!!!!!! You should have bought them and old 'em!

mmgrad

yeah, it was a hell of a deal... i even posted pics on the forum to ask for opinions about the wheels, but a few members said it was 'rice'... i didn't think so, but I decided not to get them anyways... i don't remember, but it may have even included tires (not in great condition, but probably good for a few burnouts)... i think, the guy was selling it for like $450. That was a real treasure for that price...

Tirerack only lists 19x8 in the GT3... are you sure they have a staggered setup???

Hey Bruce, sorry for stealing your thread...

BlackC230Coupe

Yeah, thats what it shows on their site, and it also only shows the 18" with a staggered setup. But when I called luke at the tirerack he said somethings wong with the site, but he does have them in stock. 19x8 and 19x9's.

here is a pic from a bimmer with the staggered 19's.



I'm lovin them.

mmgrad

i thought they looked awesome too, but it looks very different on a CLK body... have you seen pics of it before?

BlackC230Coupe

I am actually looking to get these on my C230. But no, i have never seen any pics of them on a CLK. I would like to.

mmgrad

your wish is my comand...

here it is...

mmgrad

from a little further away...

mmgrad

from the side...

mmgrad

front wheel....

mmgrad

and lastly... from the passenger side...

mmgrad

btw, i believe these to be 18" rather than the 19s you plan on getting, and of course, these are the GT1...

so, did i do a good job picture whoring???

BlackC230Coupe

Yeah those are not the GT3's. I think the GT3s in the 19's with a nice big lip and rivits would look sweet on a lowered CLK.


I was actually expecting it to look worse. Now that i saw the GT1s i think the GT3s would really not look bad at all on the CLK.


And thanks for the pics, u get 2 from me! Nice whoring!

mmgrad

most definitely the rivets & the fat lip will make a difference... the point of the pics were just to give you an idea of how the spokes and overall design of the wheel will fit with the CLK body...

I say go for it, the GT3s look nice and are hella light weight... so why not... and it'll be super easy to clean...

BlackC230Coupe

Yes, and thanks again for the pics, they did help me to understand how they would look on the CLK a little bit. Like i said though, they will be for my C230 though.

So hopefully within the next couple weeks i will place the order.

mmgrad

cool....

but how come no new toys for your CLK? you don't drive it enough?

bring it down here... i'll put some miles on it for ya

BlackC230Coupe

Actually the CLK has more miles than my C230.

But when i got the CLK, i told my self i would wanna give all the modding attention to one car only. And since i was never so crazy about the stock looks and performacne of the stock C230 i decided that would be the one i would mod. The stock CLK430's also look great and can perform great when modded to. But if i had to pick one, the C230 was the one that was able to use some more improvment. Now if i got a CLK320, that would be a different story.

Back to the SSR GT3's, i just hope if i get them that i will not see them on ricers, like to many hondas and eclipses. Thats my only concern. But the more i think of it, ricers dont usually spend more than a grand on wheels and tires together if that much.
