What's up everyone!

For those of you that know. I got some OG AMG Aero I Hammer's awhile ago. I finally got around to installing them tonight. AMG Hammer 17 x 8 ET 28 with Falken Azenis ST-115 rubber. 225/45-17's

I had them refinished. Fixed curb rashes, lip bents and surfaces repainted. here are the pictures before they got mounted and balanced.






Here are some teaser pictures for now. I wasn't able to get pictures of the full car. By the time I left TWS it already got dark so attempting to take pictures was worthless.





Stay tuned for more pictures. Big thanks to TWS for quality work as always.

Man the car looks sooooo much better with rims.... :0)

Nick_M_51988

dang, really nice.

now when you get the rubbing issues taken care of, everything will be good.

ha ha i'm talking to you on aim now!

CDP

Yeah, looks like tomorrow I'll be bringing it in to replaced the worn out bump stops and roll the fenders a little bit more. Although, I believe once the front right bump stop is replaced with a new one, the rubbing will be gone. Also, going to order some AMG spring travel limiter and get some AMG fender spacers once I get get ahold of Ben...

Great looking wheels

Man those wheels look like $H1T!.....j/p, yeah I've already seen them, they're awsome. Such a clean job on them. Whoever did the work is worth every penny.

Please post pix in the sunlight/full car, those wheels are dope.

I want a set! ugh...

AMG_Eric

chris got new shoes. bling bling....

did he find you center caps yet? maybe alon can give you the part number off of his.

CDP

He called around for the center caps but no luck with those. I'm just going to try to borrow Alon's and have a shop make me new ones. Blank or with the MB logo, we'll have to see. It doesn't look that bad with out the center caps.

EDIT: Took some pictures a couple minutes ago. Let me know what you think.

sweet sexual intercourse!

NorCal124

That's tite!

Looks great. one word of advice avoid any and all potholes and any hard ridges in roads. The Hammer wheel are not the strongest.

Bigdot

looks great chris!! about time you put them on


ill be seeing you later--

BTW when the hell are you going to pick up your exghaust!!!!

AMG_Eric

needs those center caps. call brabus and see if they have some.

neanderthal

fat.

but you need those centercaps.
now you need the amber corner lenses and euro side markers/ repeaters to finish it up. give the side a little color.

I absolutely love the polished lip. The first picture of the wheel with a black background is truly stunning. One of these days I am going to have to look into getting my lips polished on my little 16” x 7.5” ET37 Monoblock. Aero I wheels. I guess I have little baby hammers.

If only I had polished lips, but at least I have center caps on my baby hammers.

CDP

Thanks man. Just bring it to the meet next week. Do you have any tips? I found some tips from Magnaflow that I might that will look good.

Yeah, I really do need those center caps, but it's not bugging me. I'll get them when I can get them.

So...Alon!?! lol

Don't know about the amber corners, I don't really like that look and it'll ruin my whole cars appearance. the "smoked" look. I have considered side markers though. Those will probably be in the near future.

Ksing44,

I agree. the polish lips look amazing. I'm suprised on how good they came out. You're lucky your wheels have center cap with the diameter size of 3". By the way, when are you going to get some updated pictures? lol

The Godfather

Honestly? The hammer wheel is the most disgusting wheel to have ever been designed, that along with the '98 CLK320 steel weel. WTF was Mercedes thinking?!

You should have gone for mono II's.


or you could've gone gangsta w/ 18's, albeit being replicas, they are tight w/ mad lip

ksing44

If I get some polished lips, maybe then I will have to take some new pictures. For now, there really is no reason to get more pictures, unless you want to see my damaged plastic from when the knucklehead hit me. It will be fixed Monday, but all I am looking for is for my car to look exactly the same. I could take a picture and say, hey, my car looks the same still. I guess I could also take some “artsy-fartsy pictures” with crazy angle shots or very sweet backgrounds (lol), but I like to keep it simple, since I think the car should be the focus, since it is already art. Hopefully, I will be able to take a picture in 10 years and then again in 20 years, just to show everyone that my car still looks the same.

Good luck with your new wheels.

Did you ever see this one? lol I am sure you did.

ashman

Pffft Mike. you wish you had original AMG Aero 1 Hammers on your old w124...

They are the best looking AMG wheel every made...

At least he didn't powdercoat forged rims....

LOL

Chris, RE the center caps, I can't do anything until I get my car back from the shop...

AshMan

ksing44

Yes but the vehicle he drives is faster than yours

E320BENZ

Looks sweet.... keep'em clean

CDP

LOL. Mike you clown.

Alon, no worries. I'm not too worried about the caps. Whenever you can is all good. Just try to get that car fixed so you can attend our meet next week!

and...look what I picked up today Alon.

ashman

How much was the amg travel limiter kit?

Also. Did anybody notice that chris is back using his account?

Alon

CDP

It only costed me $58 with my discount at the dealer. List price I believe is 80 dollars. Not bad, although I think I might have taken the last one at the westcoast warehouse so if you order it, it might have to come from the east coast.
