Kleen Wheels 2001 SL500 AMG 18's
Luke...I'm thinking of adding Kleen Wheels to my 2001 SL500 Sport with staggered 18in AMG 5 spoke wheels.
1) I have heard that Mercedes will VOID any warranty if these are added, do you know if this is true?
2) Will kleen wheels fit staggered wheels with no problem?
3) I have also heard that even though these work very well taking brake dust off the front of the wheel, they do make the brakes run hot, which could make them mushy or even dangerous if used in a hot climate.
Thank you in advance for your time and comments.
Anyone else with info PLEASE feel free to comment.
I am hoping that there are some SL500 Sport owners with some experience with these as well!
THANKS!

Personally, you couldn't pay me enough to install kleen wheels on my car. Is it Really that hard to wash your wheels once a week??
Kleen wheels lead to excess heat, make a mess of the inside of your wheel, brake caliper, suspension bits etc....
