Just installed my wheels last week. HRE 543R 20" all around. Thanks to Ben @ Wheelsboutique for the hook up. Windows tinted 35% all around and 3M clear coating on the entire front end including the Carlsson lip.

Here's the pics.

nice new wheels Johnny!

I love your car~

that tint is going to get you into a heap of trouble depending where you live

Great car.

The tint looks really dark in the pics but it's actually a few % lighter than what comes standard on SUV's and minivans from the factory. I was going to go with 50% all around but it was barely noticable and wouldn't really provide much protection from UV light.

Thanks for the compliments on the car, now onto performance mods.

I have to admit, I've been admiring those wheels for sometime. They look great!! Thinking of changing out my all chrome 20" to something similar. Could you give me the make and specs? Great look.

Still looking for a shipping company that will take the bumper due to the size. Check your PM as well.

Anyone on the forums know of a shipping company that will take a box that is
7' x 3' x 3' and weight about 50lbs from Toronto to Vancouver? Any help would be appreciated.

They are 20x9 on 255/30/20 Conti's and 20x11 on 305/25/20's HRE 543R Chrome lip w/centres powdercoated black. I don't have the offset but as mentioned above contact Ben@wheelsboutique.com or at 1-866-51wheel and he'll hook you.

How is the ride on 20"s? I'm thinking of getting Niche Venice 19" with 255 x35 x19 on 8.5" fronts and 295x30x19 on 10" rears because I am worried the 20" wheels will give me a horrible ride quality. How say you?

W209CLK55

The ride is actually very nice. I didn'r notice to much of a difference going from the stock 18's to the 20's. You can also set the suspension the comfort setting. I have mine in sport mode all the time and have no problems with the ride.

Nice wheels!!How long do you wait for your HREs? I have been waited for mine for almost 10 weeks, and still not get them.

W209CLK55

I waited around 6-7 weeks.

You did you buy the HRE's from?

Bipasha493

damn!

From the local dealer in New York, before I made this purchase, they promise me that I will get them within 4 weeks, but now they said that they don't make HREs, and all they can do is to rush my order. Really upset about this.

ANTHONY@CarLAB

very nice.. good choice never go wrong with HRE...

Hey, good looking car. Just wondering if it is lowered at all or the 20" rims fill out the wheel well?

W209CLK55

Hi,

Wow old thread. I sold this car in 2009. The car was lowered 1" using star diagnostic from the dealer.

Ryan_rkhc

Haha yeah, looking into what I can do with an SL in 2020. Thanks for the reply
