I'm looking for Brabus monoblock V without lowered for CLK430. Can someone give me opinion please? if you have pics to show that would be great!!!

 

What size of wheels are you looking for? I don't think it's a good idea not to lower the car. Usually lowering a CLK w/ H&R cost about $300-340 w/ labor.

 

Here you go- Monoblock V Multipieces in 18"x8.5" front, 18"x9.5" rear. Lowered with H+R Sport springs. I love the rims, but I've had to buy 7 of them in the past 2 years, which has NOT been cheap.





The guy who's selling his Brembos has a nice looking 430 with the same rims- check out his thread.

 

Do the front wheels rub when you make a full U-turn? That is one good looking CLK !!

 

thanks for the reply guys.

I'm looking for 18"x8.5" front and back. the reason i don't wanna lower is that I don't want problems with alignment and uneven wear.....

 

Nice Wheels

 

Yes, my front wheels rub the suspension at full lock.

And the fronts rub the tops of the inner wheel wells during hard cornering or on really big dips.

The uneven tire wear is a b!tch, and I've scraped the ***** out of TWO front fascias now.

You might consider putting in thinner spring pads and keeping your stock springs, just to cut the fender gap a little. Stock 430s definitely need to be lowered, but 1.5" with big rims is a little bit troublesome.

 

What suspension setup are you running? And what tire size? Are you running the 235 and 265 setup? Those wheels shouldn't rub from my experience.

BTW your car looks great!!!!

 

my wheels dont rub at all.

 

do your tires wore unevenly?

 

can anybody tell me

1. where i can find the lowest price on 18" brabus mono v 1 pc set with tires for about 2000-2100 around Los Angeles/Orange county area ?

2. how much would the car drop when i go from stock spring pad 4(front) 3(rear) to 2(front) 1(rear) on clk430 ?

thanks, JJ

 

my tires did not wear unevenly. i guess im lucky. but oddly enough, the fronts wore faster than the rears.

That's exactly what I'm running, with H+R Springs and stock pads.

I love how everyone thinks that setup doesn't rub- I've had a lot of problems (for instance, the tires have rubbed through the wheel well rubber/plastic lining, and the tires wear VERY unevenly because of all the negative camber) and I'm well on my way to destroying my second front fascia.

 

That doesn't make sense. Did you use the correct H&R springs?
