Well I bought BLackbenzz's rims wich by the way is a great seller!!
Did the h&r springs with Koni adjustables
The ride is a little rough I thought one of the rims were bent but that wasnt the case it was a bad wheel spacer
Here are some pictures:

E55Cent yea I am going to do the kleeman setup im almost saved up ! ill let you know when I order it
I started out with a 18" monoblock
I bought those cheap lugcentric wheel spacers from the local auto store found out they were not Hubcentric There was a terrible shimmy in the steering wheel because the wheel wasnt centered on the hub. Then I bought the h&R wheel spacers from EVOSPORT (thanks by the way) 10mm int the front 12mm in the rear and it fixed the problem!
Thanks for the props

Out Of Control!!
Just one question, can I buy the rims back? I miss those wheels!!!!!!!!!! They look SICKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!! The worst part is the new rims I bought to clear my Brembo Gran Turismo BBK apparently only clears 13" BBK and not my 14"
I was told it would clear a Brembo BBK, I just forgot to ask what size! Now I gotta buy some new wheels. Keep us update don the Kleemann stuff. CLK55 w/ kleemann s/c is one of my dream cars.

Any clearance problems with the drop? I know my friend did Renntech springs and Koni shocks on his SLK and has problems with speed bumps or driveways with a large lip on them. Those wheels look great. What are they?

Yea man I dont know how u sold these things im in love with them! Did u try a wheel spacer to clear your brakes?
They are 19" SEVAS wheels
As for the clearing they rub at about 50mph on a big bump or rail road tracks
I was expecting that though these wheels are not made for a clk55 they do not clear the brakes. So what I am trying to say is the wheel spacers are what caused the rub

Yea I got no rub when I had the wheels on my car. Have you tried rollin your fenders? I thought about spacers but they would push my wheels too far out and I would rub bad. What do you think about the SL65 wheels? Im leaning more towards the Iforged Aero's right now. Cant decide on what finish I like though (plus I gotta sell my current wheels).

I'll try to get better pics of the wheels. Here are a couple of them from HIN before the show. They are REPLICA SSRGT3 wheels with black centers and CHROME lip. They have been on the car for less than 3 weeks and I bought them brand new (brand new tires too). Need to get rid of em fast so selling for 2k + shipping. Thanks for the help fellas.

2005 CLK55
Shouldnt this be posted on a different thread?? I dont mind links to classifieds on the forum but discussions should be part of the classifieds section so it doesnt look like activity in the thread.
