W124's
I don't acknowledge anything shakey says anymore because he now drives a riced out Civic. hahaha
I'm not denying I like the Ordens though!
$3,000 some dollars isn't that bad.

well pretty much they are the same excat fitmetn as my current ones the only thing added here is 1inch all around and .5inch width which i have plenty of place for both... ohh and the offset is 35 too soo no problem there.
only concern here is what tires to run?

I really don't see how that's possible, your car is barely lower than mine and I have no room in front and only a tiny bit in back with 8s all around..hence the spacers for a more aggressive look....

Think about it, we have to get down to mm to measure offset. A wheel with the same dimensions as yours with a 40mm offset would not fit. 5mm is less than a quarter inch.

For those saying "illusion" of lip. Uhh, there's no illusion. It's the face of the wheel that convexes out it has nothing to do with the lip.

It gives you a bigger lip even though your car requires your rims to have a high positive offset.
Albert, like I told you over PM... I really don't think those rims will fit your car.
IMHO, you should spend that money on getting your lower body cladding installed and painted as well as other misc finishing touches.
