Anyone know where I can get these rims?
These look like authentic Brabus rims but I can't find anywhere in their parts catalog that says that their rims come in black. All I see is silver polished. Can anyone lead me in right direction for either authentic black Brabus Monoblock VI multipiece or something very similar. They have to be 19's and black. Thanks in advance.

yup, you'll have to get the "normal" ones and then get them painted in black!! just like harris has suggested. here, in my opinion the best site to look for some rims. www.superbuytires.com. but i would never buy rims from them again!!! the site is just good to looked for! i really can't recommend these people to nobody!! maybe you like this rim, also http://www.superbuytires.com/wheels/...vanna/Ararat+B

they s/b brabus
Brabus has almost identical wheels for their SV12 SL 600 (see it in Modified Luxury & Exotics Mag. winter '04). They are the monoblock vi 20 inch multi piece alloys. 20x9 & 20x10. car is bad ***, black w/ black wheels. looks great.

I like the Brabus Monoblock VI multipiece rims but am looking for as large of a lip (dish) as possible and now that I'm shopping around it seems hard for me to justify spending $1550-1800 for one wheel. Also, I see Brabus Monoblock VI multipiece rims come in 19 x 8.5, 9.5, and 10. Do all of these sizes require fender modifications? If not, wha's the largest size I can go with without making any fender mods?

i had bought some rims there. payed cash in advance. they said they are going to send me the rims, but never did. it took me over 1 year (had to get a lawyer and everything) to get my money back!!
anyway if you would like to order some rims i can only recommend raymond from www.wheeltech.com. this guy is very friendly and also makes good deals!!!
i would go 19 x 8.5, 9.5 235 in the front and 255 in the back if you wanna put 19" on there. you definetly have to do some modifications to your fenders! even though i got my done the tires still rub against the fenders when i make very quick turns ( 90 degrees) i really would like to test drive another clk with some 19" to see what happens. but unfortuantly nobody over here has some 19" on there clk.

anyone see the replica brabus VI on ebay...black with polished lip? I know everyone says dont put replica SH@# on a mercedes but they look pretty good. I'm just wondering if they sit right on the car...anyone have the ones off ebay? $800 for 19" rims seems like an alright deal. You dont have to worry about curb rash and u can leave them on in the winter cuz they're cheap!
Or i might go ahead and spend $6k for a nice setup...Cant stand the stock 17"amgs.

tire rack
Got my 19s and tires from the tire rack...all i did was pick my wheels via the web site, then called them...they recommended the tires...got my package 3 days later via ups, bolted them on, perfect fit. the tires are awesome too.
