WELL ITS ABOUT TIME

Finally after waitin forever for tires to come in from Cali <never again>. Got me some 4mm spacers and right lugs for front and rear decided lets throw these suckers on . I still havnt installed my rear springs yet . I wanted to see if the rears would clear but there is no gap at all so I will get it worked in next couple days . I still love my mono blocks in black but i love these style wheels also . These crappy phone pics dont so it justice though how good they look in person . The seller sent me some light grey color center caps as opposed to gunmetal color so it seems somthing is off but I'm still debating to shoot these wheels gloss black but for now will leave them as is .. Heres couple phone pics will get better ones once i get the stance figured out and wash the ride

That looks badass. It's a big improvement over the Monoblocks you had before.

Thanks .. I dunno honestly hard to part with the monos they set it off .. If I could of got rep monos like oems in 20's i defnit would of . But these came in 2nd for choice and im happy wit them , think it def make the ride look badass even if it did lose some performance .

I also love the way Monoblocks look (reason I kept mine). I'd be very happy to find some 19" or 20" ones.

swapped rear coils and pads

after installing the 20's my rears were rubbing out . Had brand new oems and #1 pads finally changed them out and low and behold , still rubbing at hard acceleration but overall its sits just how I would want it .. The springs i removed had #2 pads and i should of left them in I'm sure it would of been just right not to rub . next week I will see which pads are on the front and try to adjust to look even with rears . Anyhow heres how my rear end looks with new oem springs and #1 pads ..

+1, the back isn't so bad but the front It looks like I could park my C43 in between your tire and your fender

Looks awesome...now you have to paint the calipers red with the AMG letters in black to make the brake calipers stand out

Get the spring compressor and do the front yourself...its a piece of cake on the front. I would put #2 in the front so as to make it look straight as the engine is heavy and with the 20's it might rub when you turn if you go with #1. I would leave the back pads the way they are. They look good at the back.....

Actually i still like the original rim...... maybe not 18", a 19" and 2 inch drop will be perfect. I am just looking for the front lip but no luck. W211 is easy and cheap only $200...

Thanks alot !!
Get compliments on them everyday , have since changed em up a
Little bit and painted the center flat black along with grill and emblems that were dont previously . The rims really wernt that expensive after all said and done i don't think I paid 1500 total for rims and tires and mounted n balance , have side replaced front tires from 245/30 20 to 245/35 20 and that seems to have closed the big gap I used to have up front without making any suspensions adjustments . Here's the new look Togo with new home .

Oh man! I must have been looking in all the wrong places!! When I was looking last year, I couldn't find them for less than 2500 anywhere! The ones I ended up with that are currently on my car were around 1700 after mounting, balancing and new bolts. Kinda sad to know for what I paid, I could have had the ones I really wanted, but hopefully I have better luck next time. Love what you've done to them! They look great!

Congrats on the house as well, it's purrty! One of our neighbors has those same garage doors and every time I drive by I can't help but notice how much better they look than your typical garage door!

Are these the ones you bought? I would love to find them elsewhere for cheaper, but still showing 2k on here plus who knows what shipping is...I haven't been able to find them anywhere else.
