20' Incurve Wheels CLS/SL - Ferrari Grey
I purchased these wheels 2 months ago from The Vazha on this forum. Before I purchased them, he had them powdercoated Ferrari Grey and they came out looking killer. Unfortunately, when I got them, they got a little box rash during shipping. After a lot of back and forth with UPS, they denied fault due to "faulting packaging." Val was a standup seller and worked with me throughout the whole process. However, the damage wasnt back enough for me to send back the wheels and have them repowdercoated. Once they're on the wheels, its hard to tell they even have the scratches. However, I tried my best to describe the wheels as best as I could so no one gets any surprises.
I only put about 500 miles on the wheels and the new Hangkook V12 tires. I paid 1150 for the wheels shipped and 800 for the tires. However, one of the wheels have been repaired (Val noticed a hairline crack before he shipped and had it repaired). Also, as I was taking the wheels off the car, I noticed one of the rear tires has really bad camber wear already and probably should be replaced in the next few thousand miles. The other rear is fine with no camber.
Asking $1600 for the wheels plus shipping.

Re Premature Edge Tire Wear -
There is only front and rear Toe adjustment OEM
No Camber (or Caster) to be able to return vehicle to factory specs to resolve inner edge tire wear, improve traction, fix steering pull.
The result of curb knock damage, altering height, fitting wide profile tires, load carrying etc.
For the front you can fit crash bolts - but these offer very little adjustment and are inaccurate/one position bolts.
At K-MAC we saw the need to "fix it right the first time" by designing/manufacturing precisely adjustable front kits that are able to provide more than twice the adjustment range.
The patented design allows ongoing, single wrench adjustment. There are no special tools required to install and kits replace the four highest wearing front end bushes.
Similar kits are available for rear - Camber adjustment also for the first time with additional Toe to compensate for this new rear Camber facility.
Special promotional offer for month of May for USA/Canada MB World members is FedEx Air freight of $25 for one kit or $35 for front and rear kits (usually $70 and $85)
