Vic, have you seen the new Brabus 2002 catalog? I just got mine today, and there's lots of good pictures of the 19" Monoblock VI's on all the new cars. It looks pretty good. You might want to look at those before making a final decision. However, I can't find any pictures online and the one the guy posted earlier doesn't do the combo justice. Take a look at the catalog.

BTW I removed a post from the old thread about the connections...finally figured out you didn't need them.

Hey Peter thanks a lot Ill have to get my hands on that catalog. If you get lucky and spot a pic of the Mono VI please post it. You are right about that the pic with E-Class- the Mono VI's look great but they just didnt seem right in that pic.

I just thought of something...

Vic, the shop you use is sprewell racing, isn't it? why don't you go with the Auto Couture Supreme in 19x8.5 F and 19x10 R? That is a very nice setup IMO. I know it's made in Japan, nut they are Mercedes-specific fitments available. Plus, it's a nice 3 piece wheel in silver with a nice deep polished lip in the back.

Hey Peter I have seen the Auto Couture wheels, they are very nice but also discontinued. I still can get a set but if I ever damage them it will be a ***** to get them replaced.

The MAE's are crazy and too aggressive for IMO-

Thanks anyways for posting the pics. I wish the Auto Coutures were not discontinued
