FYI for powerwheelspro: I picked up a set of these 818's and the tire shop said the front wheels would not fit my R230 because the hub was pushing off the center cap. I went to the shop to see for myself and discovered the problem was with the center cap, NOT the wheels. The center cap you provided has a long plastic post on the inside of the cap that the hub was hitting. When you compare this cap to the OEM center caps there is no post. Do you have different types of center caps for different model Mercedes or are they all the same? Thanks

Why not just trim the plastic post?

BTW, nice wheels at a very competitive price Powerwheelspro. Also sounds like you guys have a great customer service. If I weren't selling my '93 500E I might be interested. Good luck with your business.

All of our Mercedes center caps are the same. I think you should be able to use your stock caps. If not, you may want to trim the plastic as the other member suggested. Let us know, we will support you no matter what.

Thanks,

Yep, trimming the plastic post was always an option and the OEM caps work as well. I just wanted to bring it to your attention so other R230 owners (and maybe others) do not go through the same problem. Perhaps before sending these caps out you could trim the center posts just to avoid any confusion down the road. Had I not looked at the problem myself and took the tire shop's word that the wheels didn't fit I would have ended up returning them. Just a thought.

Will do, we will check to see if the factory has the 19" molds, if they do we will place a production order asap, if they don't we will have to make the molds first.

Thanks

What is involved in getting the sl63 (911 turbo style) wheels to fit an AMG Big brake kit?

Hi guys,
Unfortunately the 818s (the split spoke SL63 style) are out of stock for now. We will work with the factory to get some more in our July container.

007ML500: Your car looks INCREDIBLE! Thanks for posting them and thank you for your business

aleksandar1099: Your E55 will take all our 35mm offset wheels with absolutely n modifications.

Regards,
Vassili

These look SICK on an E55! Check it out.

(sorry, still haven't washed the car, just got the wheels on this morning)







I can also vouch for ANY E55 owners that these wheels fit on an E55 with the big AMG brakes with ABSOLUTELY NO MODIFICATIONS! Vassili was kind enough to ship me a single wheel which I took over to the wheel shop and had them test fit, and then sent me the other 3 afterwards. All 4 fit perfectly and with no issues whatsoever. No spacers required.

Finally got them on. Busy week! They look amazing! Got tons of compliments already. A nice clean, racy look.

Thanks again Vassili. You helped through the whole ordeal! I Definitely recommend Powerwheels Pro!!!

These look awesome. Do you know what tire sizes I would need to go with? 2003 CLK320 stock suspension and brakes, most likely will not be lowering it. I would prefer not to use any spacers and do not want any rubbing

Thanks

The CLK uses a 225 front and a 255 rear.

Thanks,

Hello there,

Forgive me if this has been covered, will these fit a 2002 C32 AMG? I'd love to buy a set if they do.

Thanks,
Albert Hernandez.

dblock2151: Sorry, your question has been overlooked. We can sure do tire packages, like 225/40/18 F and 255/35/18 R General Exclaims for an additional $659 mounted and balanced. Shipping for the wheel/tire package is $140.

We work with a tire wholesaler and we have access to any other tire you want. Just let us know if you are interested in anything else and we can get you a quote.

Hi Albert: No worries, we don't expect anyone to have the time to go over 4 pages of comments. According to our sources you will need 8-10mm spacers in the front to clear your brakes. Other than that, you are in business.

Please let us know if we can be of any further assistance,

Vassili

Vassili
Can you give me a complete total for the style 811 in 18x8.5"F/18x9.5"R with the appropriate General Exclaim tires, mounting and balancing, and shipping?

Also I have the Sport brakes and coilovers, how big of a spacer do you think I would need? Should I stretch the tires a little so I don't rub?

Thanks again for all your help bro!

-Amar
