What wheels are these? |
My car came to me with Brabus monoblock S. Last month the RR went low overnight while parked. This was the same wheel that already had 1 repair and I see the leak is due to in inside bead seat crack. Fawk. Took it in and repaired it buuuut.... nah. Me no likey. Could not find a replacement so I put a set of '07 sl55 wheels on it and they are growing on me. I might stop looking for a wheel and leave these be. Here's a pic mid-install. The S wheel in back is the one that brought all this on.

How's the daily life sitting that low? I know it's not terribly dropped compared to the stock suspension, but just wondering if you have any rubbing or dampening issues. I doubt I'll replace the bags unless I absolutely have to, but curious as to how you like it. Looking noice!

Thanks guys! I hate to be a jerk, but I can't give out exact offsets. haha I feel that doing the research and measurements on your own help significantly with the final outcome of your build along with an appreciation of the work itself. I will however tell you that both the front and rear offsets are nearing the negative mark if that helps!

As it turns out, they would have probably fit with some possible slight scuffing on the inside, forward plastic. I have started playing with the height since the first pic's which were at stock height.
https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mbw...892282746e.jpg 20” fit all day long on the w211 / nice look. i have the same size fronts and 305-25-20 in the rear with no issues! |
I haven't had car that long probably a year but I have went thru 4 sets of rims not including stock ones. These are all the same car lighting really effects the color it looks. I also got updated bumper and grill.

These are the rims

Yes I'm aware of that haven't gotten around to it. This is my first Mercedes and I've had it for around a year so I'm learning. And I obviously prefer the grill with star because I bought that grill and installed it. I purchased when I still had other bumper. But I would never see a pic of your car and be like change your grill. That's what's cool about buying a car you put what the **** YOU want on it.

Looking great!! How does it ride with the 19"s vs 18"s?
The only thing I have noticed is slightly more road noise from the Michelin PS4s compared to the Yokohama AE50's - but that is expected as the PS4's are a high performance tyre where as the AE50's are more an everyday tyre. |

Dam man that's SICK! That's crazy it looks like a totally different car! Looks insane you must be VERY HAPPY I know I would be! |
Does anyone on here have this style wheel on their E55 or E63? Loving this design and wondering how it will look. Thanks in advance.
