I'm gonna have to say HRE's too.

I love the 800 series...smooth lip...none of that classic 3-piece bolt look crap. I hate that

 

EACH??? OMG........Wheels actually worth as much as the car.

Is nothing sacred?

 

1. BBS RG-R
2. Volk GT-7 (gunmetal center, polished lip)
3. Fikse FM/10

not terribly expensive, only in the ~$2K/set range (not ~$2K/wheel like Jimlab's!)

 

MMmMMmmm advan ::

kinda pricey...but ill either be rockin these or avdan rg's

 

those are bad ***

 

I dunno Jim, i've never priced it, but i'll bet you could do my pie-in-the-sky center-lock setup (third post or so) for not much more than this... not including the Porsche ceramic-composite rotors of course, as those are likely 6k all by themselves.

 

If money was not an issue, then I would take the stock rims on the Farrari 360 Modena. Of course the car would come with it.

 

But since money is an issue, I had these rims put on- as a matter of fact , I had then put on just a few hours ago!

blitz technospeed 18x11 rear and 18x9 fronts. with some bad *** tires, h&r wheel spacers and a set of fender flares.

 

I fyou're not making at least 450 to the ground, 11's won't do you any good.

 

HAHAHAHA..."how many heart attacks is dat' for ya der' Bob?"

"ahhh, abouta bakers dozennn"

 

Polish sausage. Ditka. Da bears. Bearsss. Bearss. Polish sausage.

 

There are a few options I'm thinkin about, but the 19" Brabus Monoblock VI 2-Piece is what I'm leanin' towards. Clean and classy...







HRE would pretty much be my top choice, but their styles are a little too sporty for a Mercedes-Benz, IMO. Most are too thinly-spoked for a larger car, and I don't think the 546/546Rs would look too good on an SL.

I would go dub-status, but even with 19s, I'll need some very low-profile tires (P295/30-19) in the back. With 20" tires, even the most low-profile ones out there are too big in diameter compared to the factory P285/35-18. Messing with tire diameters is NOT something I want to do, especially in a Benz with so many electronics working off the tire-speed.

 

No ****

but if money isn't a problem...then 450 shoudn't be either, now would it?

JoeD, I have deleted the outbursts. You've been warned.

 

Money not being an issue.... OZ Super Leggera 3's 18x8.5" in front 18x10" rears

 

A set of Fikse's like these would do nicely

I'd go with some HRE 540's in 18x10 and 18x11.

 

Toucher, LOL!!!

 

Any more pictures guys?

 

Work Meister 2SR's.. =P~~

 

I think I'd commission Volk to make a custom set of TE-37 mags, in, mmm, 17x9.5f 17x11r. In gunmetal. With the right offset for 2.5" springs so I can run nice, wide tires (can anyone say 275 front 315 rear?) With rolled fenders, M2 trailing arms, and 2.5" springs I think that might actually fit.

 

mmmm Advan Sienna II's.... My FD will be rockin those soon.
