I would love to get a 997tt but that would require selling a few to get one and im not sure I want to do that.
I think he's getting rid of the 997 now too, LOL. We just did the flash, intake and exhaust on it too. He's going back to a Benz.

The car looks great Marcus.

LOL....he called me this morning and said he is picking up a CL55.....I told him there is no replacement for the torque in a 55.

P.S. Thanks for the new lug bolts Craig!

Amazing, amazing wheels, I'll get these next. A few questions if I may?
  • Do they make this exact style/color for E55's in 19 inch? If so what is the maximum width I could go front and rear on a stock height E55 for 19's with no rubbing? (So 10" in the back or is that too much?)
  • How much?
  • Do you think they'd look OK on my E55 which is light gold in color or would that just look silly?
These are the best wheels for an MB I've ever seen.

Thanks!

Alex

Yes they do and they would look sick. It would actually make your car look more grey. There is a pewter E55 around here with grey wheels and everytime I see it, it looks like some new grey I have never seen. He has tint and some carbon as well and it looks very nice.

PM D2 for pricing. They posted a few post up from this one.

Awesome, thank you very much. I think these wheels on my light gold E55 and if I paint the rotors the same color as the car (light gold), framed by the gun metal wheels could look absolutely stunning, but as it's a really odd/unique combo I don't want to screw it up!

Thanks again, fantastic, fantatic wheels.

Will do! Long Tube Headers first then wheels! Power first, then looks. (That's the sequential approach I'm taking with modding my E55.)

Thanks.

I just picked up a black CLS 55 and i was gonna wait awhile on buying some wheels, but after seeing these on your CLS its def a must. Your CLS looks amazing man!

I am just wondering how it will look on a black CLS. Ive seen the black SL and it is absolutely SICK!! Def considering painting the brake calipers now as well.

IMO, they may look even a little better on a black one.

Not a CLS, but at least you get an idea for this exact color scheme on a black car

there is a sexy 03 Viper Convertible with a Paxton blower and niiiiice 360 Forged wheels in Maryland - just saying, if you are looking for a fun toy.

Ha!

I've seen and raced that Viper. Pretty car. You can see me getting ready to put the beat down on him.

No problem, the black lug bolts should be clearing customs in a couple of days and I should be able to have a set out to you by the end of the month. I will make sure that you get a set off the first order. If I remember correctly you need 10 stock length and 10 longer length with a conical seat, right?
