Yikes! I sure hope the apron is not that much!

Damn - hadn't been on this site in forever. Sorry to necro-bump this thread, but this seems like the type of thing that multiple people would probably search for. Got the ML63 rear valence and then chopped the 550 tips and welded on AMG quad tips. The valence was ~$500 if I recall, and the tips weren't too bad. Well worth it for the improved appearance in my mind.

What's the largest tire width the ML can accommodate? Looking for a new set of rims and wondering without a spacer for the rear and front if they are different.

I have 18" wheels (ET 58) with 255/55 tyres, fitted with 30mm spacers all-round.
The outer edges of the tyres still sit (just ) inside the wheel arches.

30mm spacers? How long are you bolts? I have 15mm front and 20mm back for my winter rims but wanted more in the back. I couldn't find more than 60mm shank bolts.

Hi,
The Spacers are aluminium concentric ones, made in Germany. They have steel inserts so you can use your original wheel bolts.
They come with new counterbored bolts to attach them to the hub.
Bought them on ebay, they are shipped directly from Germany.
Seem to remember they were about 60 quid a pair, but you will surely get them cheaper where you are, Brits pay too much for everything!
I have noticed more tramlining and general bump-steer because of the positive scrub radius caused by the large offset. Nothing too offensive though, and it's worth it to have so much extra grip and sharper turn-in..

Thanks. Any chance you have a pic of these?

This is them, but it's worth shopping around, I didn't pay that much...
