CLK W208
feeler

whatsup ladies and gents. as the title says this is a feeler, As you all know I have a set of 19" wheels that i have been running on my car for the past few years. They are 19x10 on the rear and 19x9 upfront. I dont recall the offset. These wheels were designed by myself and my very good friend and the import legend RJ Devera. the wheels were designed around the clk w208 so the fitment and clearance is absolutly flawless and it is literally impossible to get better fitment. There is no need for spacers or hub ringsas the wheels sit perfect and are hub-centric to the CLK factory hub ring. They are 2 piece wheels which allow you to change the ring(berrol) if you bend one which is signnificantly cheaper than buying a new rim. I have just had the hoops changed about a year ago so they are in fantastic condition and the wheels have no bends or anything just a few curb rashes that can easily be fixed for about a $100 (normal wear and tear on the wheels). Now here is the part that is making it very difficualt for me to even think about selling them, These wheels are the only ones in the world, there were only two sets designed and manufactored, one set for my clk and one set for my friend RJ's widebody NSX as seen in many magazines and shows. The tought of selling them makes me want to cry as the look and fitment of them and their flushness with the car is absolutly perfect and hassle free(no spacers or hub rings needed). how ever I have recently purchased a new set of wheels and I dont have a storage any longer to save these wheels. I am just putting this out there to gauge intrest and see if i can bring myself to sell my one off beloved wheels. The cost of these wheels between the autocad design and measurment and CNC time and Blocks of aluminum was about $7000. If i can bring myself to selling them i will be asking for $2000 or best offer. so i am open to potentioal buyers but please dont lowball me because these are the only set like it and probably the only set of wheels that was build specifically for the CLK w208 and all the design was done with the center hub on the actuall car. currently they are painted semi gloss black but the lips can be polished out to the original high polished aluminum and so can the spokes, you can have them in any combination that you like thats up to the buyer. so hit me up with offers and questionss and i will decide if i want to sell them or not.

The wheels are designed to accomidate a big brake kit as well such as the brembo or the stoptech as i had the stoptech on the car for a bit. in the pictures below you can see the flushness of the wheels with the car and the aggressiveness of the width. they also have gunmetal color rivits that i just left off but they can be snapped in place very quickly for a more cosmetic look if you like rivits, if i do sell them the buyer will receive the rivits too.
