For Sale: Auto Couture Lative Rims
Up for sale is a set of discontinued Auto Couture Lative rims in a machined face with mirror polished lips. The specs are 19x9.5 + 22 (3inch lip) and 19x10.5 +20 (4inch lip) and bolt pattern is 5x112. These will fit our cars! These rims are in mint condition, all original hardware. Lips have no curb rashes what so ever and no bends or cracks on the barrels. I have two Falken tires I will throw in if the buyer wants. One 225/35/19 (for the front) and One 235/35/19 (for the rear). Tires have enough tread left for about 3-4k miles. My asking price is $2300. I prefer local pick up please. (bay area) If interested or have any questions, please feel free to call/text me at 4083879383. Sorry for low quality pictures, their from my iPhone.
Yellow tape is to protect the lip from being scratched.

Your car must not be lowered then. Besides, what's the point of running tires that aren't even as wide as the factory ones? The whole point is to have extra meat on there for better traction and handling. To each their own I guess.

Makes no sense unless he was trying to make SL wheels fit his CL. The OP should take these and sell them on the SL area. If someone buys these for a CL, they are going to be pissed because the offset is completely wrong.

I actually want to see pictures of a 235 stretched onto a 10.5" wide wheel. That would definitely be a site to see...

Thanks Mike! I think only me and you would know something about running stretched tires. I might end up keeping these rims if I can't find a buyer in two or three weeks.

My car is actually lowered, I would say its pretty slammed. I don't drive aggressive or race, just drive from point A to point B locally so I don't mind running on stretched tires.
Here you go man, 235/35/19 on a 10.5" rim just like you wanted. These are the actual rear rims on the driver side.
I just posted these to see if I can sell them and I obviously put up the offsets so that people can know what the measurements are and how they would fit before they buy them. Dont like the fitment, don't buy them right? These fit my car with no rubbing and I have no issues.They actually came off my friends E55 which was lowered too.

I'm very aware on stretching tires but what you did is unsafe and looks terrible. To each their own.

Yes I am aware that its unsafe but I know hundreds of people out there running the same setup, mater a fact I know of people stretching even more crazier then this. I basically know all the potholes where I live so I should be fine. I won't be taking corners fast or anything like that so I'm not worried. I was runnin 20's with stretch tires for about three months and not a single problem occurred.

Thanks bro. Btw, what are you lowered on? I just lowered my boys 06 w211 with bc coil overs, it came out pretty nice. As for OCKlasse, it would look very nice cause its looks nice on my car. Heres a pic from my iPhone of the rims on my car.

Beautiful car , but rims look like ****. Looks like a 1992 maxima in Tijuna, Mexico.....
Is your car in your living room? Or your do you sit in the car and watch the flat screen?
Guys please tell me how does a stretch tire look good ? Or tell me how it makes your car handle better? I just cannot get it!
These wheels would look good on sl and cls ..
