20x9.5 BRABUS Monoblock VI Replica Installed
Ordered them last week. Just got installed today.
Running Yokohama Parada Spec-X 295/45R20.
Bought them from Discount Tire.
They will say 20x9.5ET40 won't fit on W163, but IT DOES!

i think it just looks odd putting mb cap on brabus/carlsson/lorinser wheels... even if they are replicas...

i'd put authentic body kit, but not on wheels... not just worth paying extra for authenticity especially if u r not the only one driving the car...

Looks good! How about modifying the piping to add a matching tip to the other side?
