R231 SL65/SL63 Custom Rims Picture Thread

If you have aftermarket/custom rims post some pics here. Sorry I can't post yet. Still researching and shopping. I know I'm not the only one and this
thread will help all of us and I'd really like to see what everyone is doing/how they look.

Include the rim size and offsets and the size tires you're running. Any issues you may have run in to. Thanks to all.

Post those Pics!!!

Have you checked your front tire clearance in relation to your upper upper control arm? Running 255/35’s I would imagine you have less than 1/4”. I am running 245’s and I have about 3/8”
