Very Nice wheels, very nice suspension, but.....I am very sorry to say this... wrong choice of tire, P7000s is one of the worst tires out there. Throw them away after 6 months!

Why $7,500 for wheels and tires? That sounds expensive.
Wheels should be $1,000 ea., plus max. $1,000 for tires = $5,000

I guess Brabus wheels are expensive, you can get 19" AMG's from $350-750, and most of the other brands, OZ, BBS, etc. under $1,000. I didn't consider the S/H.
Anyway, enjoy your purchase. The wheels look awesome!

Those are my favorite Brabus wheels, however, Brbaus tends to make their wheels really heavy. I had to get rid of my Monoblock Vs because the wheel weight was adversely affecting the performance of my car. I'm not sure about the VI's but the 18" Vs weighed in at about 33 lbs/wheel! I'm sure they will look great mounted on your car.

this ones are pretty damn heavy too.. i have 5 packages total, 4 wheels mounted and balanced, plus a package that included shocks and springs, total came out to 310lbs.

Yeah, the Monoblock VI 19"s are pretty heavy. After I sold my Mono VIs and put the stock 17" back on, I can feel a drastic difference on my car's acceleration.
Having said that, I think its well worth it to put such a nice set of wheels on a MB, especially on a CLK! The Mono VI looks VERY elegant, but sporty also!!! A really wise choice on the wheels (not tires though, hahaha!!).
