I'm sure we can make it happen, but only downfall is BBS requires a min order to make it happen. =(

I heard BBS offsets are fixed = spacers in most cases.

I know they build correctly for the M5/M3 but they have never been Benz friendly. I have had 3 sets of BBS LM's and they are required spacers or just didn't look aggressive enough. But if anyone in NA can get it done it would be Eric at Supreme.

Something weird about BBS' on a Benz...it's like wearing Air Jordans with Adidas sweatpants. They belong on BMWs.

We think they look pretty good on Porsches too:
