Hi guys

First of all, I am new on here, I am actually an Audi forum member, however I believe there may be some interest on MB forum as these wheels are suited for some high end models.

Hope nobody minds this post!

Right, I have a custom set which was spec'd up for my Audi RS4 Avant (B5)

However, other priorities force me to put these up for sale.

I believe them to be suited to CLK Black series, due to the low offset.

they are 9 x 19" ET 10.

5 x 112 PCD

couple of pics of the actual wheels and one of a member on here's CLK which I love!






Serious offers only please.

What is teh center bore on them? Mercedes is 66.56 while Audi is 56.

phister

yeah whats the center bore and what are you looking for in price?

nils

Center bore is 57.1mm, does this mean they would not work with Mercedes then?

im sorry to say but the hub is to small and i dont think you can shave the hub as it has been made to suit your car... very nice wheels tho
merc 66.+
VAG 57.1

You can take the wheels to a machine shop and have them rebore the center of the wheels to Mercedes spec. I had to do this with some BBS wheels from a BMW I used for my Jag. Beautiful wheels, and that CLK looks incredible with them!!

Brilliant, still an option for anyone interested in these for their MB

That is NOT a good idea. The design probably calls for a certain amount of meat. When you start doing that you are going to run into issues; good or bad.

If these wheel had been made for a Mercedes in the first place they would have had the center bore drilled to the proper spec.... They dont have entirely separate molds for different cars with different center bores. It is completely safe, this I can guarantee. Provided the machine shop you take it to is well versed in this kind of job.

One always likes qualifiers; especially from someone who knows and never posts proof.

You are aware a custom wheel manufacturer is a machine shop right? They supply centers and machine them to a customers specifications (bolt pattern and center bore).

So I guess for your sake call Dymag and ask them if they make wheels in Mercedes spec, then you will know if it is safe to to have these machined ~10mm. And yes I used to work for a wheel manufacturer. I think the OPs thread can be left alone from this point now.

Make sure its a super knowledgeable machine shop. Those are magnesium centers.

Do you still have these wheels available, if so what kind of price are you looking to get out of them? these would work perfect for something I am working on
