Tires on yellow Kleemann SL55

Does anyone have the correct tire size and brand on the yellow Kleeman SL55 at the Essen Motor show? I have been told different sizes by several sources including Kleemann USA. Either the tire size seems to small or nobody makes the tire size (checked with distrubutors,tire companies, and on web sites). Also is their any update on the new Kleemann T-S6 wheels other than "April"?

Those kleeman rims are begging for a curb-rash.

TS-6 wheel is available end of April, start of May. Production runs are limited so if you do in fact want a set contact your KLEEMANN dealer and make your intentions known. If you ordered a set today it would be two months before you had them in your hand (first months production is sold).

The yellow KLEEMANN Essen SL had.

Front TS-6 10,5 x 20 with Dunlop SP 9000 265/30 ZR 20

Rear TS-6 12 x 20 with Dunlop SP 9000 305/25 ZR 20

The new Dunlop SP 9000 285/25 20 we use rear when we fit 20" on W 211, isn't in the price list as well. These sizes KLEEMANN and Dunlop have worked on together, they will come in catalouges and pricelists later.

They can be supplied with a set of TS-6 from April/May.

Thank you. But a little upset about wheels!

I have been trying to get an answer for months. I am a little upset in that I had been emailing Cory at kleemann about ordering these wheels and waiting for info. Now I find out the first month is sold out. I would gladly have put a deposit and order in.

bonte-

Its supposed to be humorous- Its our company truck, a 2003 Ford F-250 Super Duty with a 7.3 liter International common rail direct injection turbo. Its huge- although the motor specs are impressive: 340hp and 525 lb/ft tq.

LOL. So you work with Dunlop to develop the tires, but your ad is sponsored by Toyo?

VERRRY NICE wheels though. Any pictures of them on a W211?
