Thanks for the compliments fellas.
Those are 18" x 8.5" all around. The rear tires are 265/35/18, front 225/40/18. H&R springs are coming! I got a great deal with my friends. It was a trade off, I drew up a design architectural plan for his home and he ordered me those rimls through his business. Besides, he also get 40% discount when he order it. I didn't have to pay a dime.

Used to be a CLK430
BANSASN,
That looks great!! I love to see a 1999 looking so clean! I've got a question, why didn't you go 9.5" in the back? The reason I'm asking is that I'm thinking of going with the same rims but was looking at the staggered combo, looking for a little wider tire in the rear. Great job!!
Thanks!!

As much as I would love to have the stagger, this was a business deal b/w my friend and I. Out of my own pocket it will cost me an extra $2100 to get the stagger. The stagger are a little pricey for him even with his discount. That is why I mounted265/35/18 for the rear to have that stagger affect.
If I had to pay for these rims out of my own pocket I'll probably could only afford the forged one's.
Some of his clients have the forged Brabus VI, it was identical to mine except his was one piece rims instead of 2 pieces. Also mind was heavier.
I have a question for everyone, do you guy think this will look silly if I put the brabus center back instead of the Benze center cap? The reason I asked because I have ///AMG bad on the back. For me I just want the MB & ///AMG theme only on my car. Or should I put the Brabus center caps back on so people don't assume these rims are fake?
Anyway..........thank for the compliment guys. H&R springs are comeing!

CLK 430

FRESH AND CLEAN !
I still say that this style looks better than than the new CLK...much more muscular/masculine in my view.
But hell...maybe I'm just mad because I just got my 430 last year and they are changing the body style!
