CLK W208
officially up for grabs

whatsup ladies and gents. as the title says this is officially up for grabs, 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 19x9.5 on the rear and 19x8.5 upfront. 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 rings as 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 and balance perfect, just a few curb rashes that can easily be fixed (paint is chipped) 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.The cost of these wheels between the autocad design and measurment and CNC time and Blocks of aluminum was about $7000. but because i am under a time crunch i'm asking for $1100 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.
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, buyer will also receive the rivits too.
I am in southern CA and pickup is prefered but i have no problem shipping.

picture can be found in the attached link. first come first served.
