Default Re: mercedes rims

Really nice. Be sure to find out the offset so you can figure out if you will need sapcer. My wheels are 18x8 and 18x9 and required a 10mm spacer in the rear. This is because our stock wheels are 22ET rear and 32 or 35ET front. There are some advatages of using OEM style MB wheels. One is that the wheels have enough clearance in the front for the center caps. MB has a think bearing cap that interferes with many aftermarket wheels which is why many people end up needing front spacers. MB wheels can also be cheaper if you shop around.
