No spacers for the SL500. Direct bolt-on.

Hey,

They weight 32lbs front and 35lbs rear. They are very light considering the size and lip.

That's just plain hardcore! Excellent! Here in Croatia we have a lousy selection of wheels, all we can buy in stores are MB originals which cost around 1000$ per piece, or some crappy models!

Contact a good seller and they will ship freight over to there I'm sure. Won't e that much. It's only like $1000 to ship a car on a ship I think.
