Staggered Or Not??
On my 1994 sl500, I would like ask for suggestions in whether to get staggered after market wheels or not. I'm looking at the lorinser LM5's 19" or the Brabus mono VI's also in 19's.
Pics would help as well
Regards,

1999 SL500
I don't know if there's technically an issue with the staggered wheels, but I rather like the look. I think the handling just might be a bit better as well.
Wasn't there an issue with 19" (or 18" for that matter) on certain SL's before 1998? Something about fender rolling to make room for them? I remember reading something about this when I was deciding whether or not to go with the SL Sport Wheels on my 1999 (and was told that this procedure wasn't needed for '99s)
