I am selling a set of 18" Carlsson 1/6 wheels off of my buddy's W203 Mercedes. They are 18x8.5 +40 all around. There is a 5mm spacer on each which believe makes them +35 overall. The tires are 235/40/18 al around and have about 75-80% tread left but two have some camber wear and could use a flip. The wheels do have some curb rash and have no bends and no leaks. The price is pretty firm at $700 or best offer. The wheels are located in San Gabriel/Pasadena/Rosemead. I prefer to deal locally but will ship at buyer's expense (roughly $150). The best way to contact me is e-mail: ryhi@hotmail.com

Yes that was a great deal. Thanks ryhi!
As shown below it fits perfect. Test drove with 4 passengers and full tank of gas and experienced slight rub in front. I removed the spacers and replace it with centering rings (plastic one at $10 each) and rolled the front fender's wheel arch and all's clear. No rubbing whatsoever.
Now the real work begins. I want to lower it a bit to look perfect. The front wheel and arch gap is about 2.5" and the rear gap is 3" with full tank of gas. I want to drop it by at least 1 to 1.5". I'm already researching for springs and shocks.
