New shoes on...matte black 19"

Well...after debating whether or not to go the matte black route... I figured I would test the waters with some low priced reps. Figured if I didn't like them...I could easily sell them for like $100 less than I paid for them.

I actually like them.



















I meant to weigh them before installing them last night. Totally forgot. Doh.

Yep.... It was a no-brainer at that price. Very pleased with them. Yeah, I'm sure they're not the lightest kicks on the street...but they'll work for me.

My 18's are 27.2lbs for the fronts.

I can't tell from your pictures, but are you thinking of adding small spacers on the fronts?

My rears are hella flush, I want my fronts to match!

Thanks for the compliments guys!

I went out for about 15 minutes to run some errands to find parts for another car I'm working on...and at both places I stopped, I had someone come up and make compliments as well. Guess it was the right call to go black.

I guess Wesley Snipes was right in whatever movie that was where he said, "Always bet on black..."

Not sure about spacers...haven't really thought about that too much.

Beautiful car.

If you don't mind my opinion....Your AMG met Nascar today......

The Vegas Murdered out look it not a good look for a MBZ.
