Any of you SLK guys jumped to a wide (9+"), 18" wheel? If so, do you have...

- brand
- size
- offset
- and finally, pictures? :-)

Thanks!

Offsets should be 35mm to 37mm in front and 30mm to 35mm in the rear.

I don't know anybody running anything wider than 8.5 inches in the front and 10 inches in the rear, and those look goofy because the tires (235s in front and 265s in the rear) are way too narrow for the rims.
