Just off the phone with Klee.
Belt they give you with Kleemann pulley is K080510
8 rib/51 Inch belt.
Gates has proven to be the best for me.
Rockauto has been a great place for online belts.

Been so long now, I forgot if Klee gave me a new water pump pulley with my K2. Think so.
Anyways, there ya go.

........will try again. If you do not have or plan to use an acessory belt tensioner mod then, Hennessey and ASP pullies need 8 rib x515 belt. Some have used X525 belts, but I will worry about slippage. Kleemann and Renntech need 8 rib x510 belt. The manufacturer can be Napa, Mercedes or Dayco, Gates or whoever. Because there is wiggle room, the exact measurent will vary depending on manufacturer. It is not a big deal. Dayco belts are probably stronger, but if your belts are shreading then something is wrong with your pulley. The problem is seldom just the belt. This is why I don't think that the actual belt manufacture makes a difference. I have been running Napa belt on my G55 for 2 years.

Jeez, we've been back and forth on this for weeks now. I'll find out exactly what size my RennTech pulley belt is. If the initiator of this thread wants to make the mental leap that the K needs the same size, then he can get it. Personally, I would have though that K would have been more clear about what belt to run.

......there really isn't a confusion. He already has a part number for the belt Kleemann recommends. Many are also running oem belt from mercedes. So he has two absolutely clear choices. I don't understand the problem. I don't think Renntech manufactures its own belt either. whatever size the Renntech belt is, it is likely to be somewhere between X510 and X525. x525 is pobably too long. What is the confusion? Just get a belt!!!
........The hard concept to grasp is that Mercedes makes belts and Renntech does not. whatever size you decide your Renntech belt is, then get it from a belt maker like Mercedes, Dayco, Napa, Gates etc. Mercedes does make belts for different applications some longer and som shorter than W211.

Sorry about that, dude. I didn't mean that confusion. And I already know RennTech doesn't "make" anything. You keep saying there is no confusion, but there is.
What is the proper size for an aftermarket pulley by Kleeman? He didn't ask what brand.

Per Kleemann, proper size is a 51.0" 8 Rib.
I did notice that the Gates claims a measurement 51.5 for part# 080510
If you feel like it's slipping on you, then you would have to use the Dayco Gold Label (that is the belt that Kleemann gave me with the K2). She works okay and it is exactly 51.0", but it will not last as long as a Gates.
Sorry for any confusion from my end.
