Default wheels

]just out of curiousity, does anybody know or have any experience with OEMwheels plus, a wheel mfg, or imported of replica wheels from the German guys. They have a couple oif wheels I like that are the 112 5 pattern, and they are reasonably priced. Good review on eBay, but you know how that goes. Just wondering is all. Thanks. Mark

No I haven't squirrel. I didn't know that Rob did this aspect too. Thanks for letting me know. I'm not ready yet for wheel anyway, just started perusing around so didn't really want to bother anyone yet since I wasn't ready to buy. I'll check with needswings though as I'm more ready. Thanks for the heads up on that. Like to keep things in the family.

I'm beginning to think Rob is involved in everything
Let us know/see what you come up with, it's always nice to see what people come up with.

Default Re: wheels

I have bought from them on Ebay and the wheels are very good price and very good OEM quality. I almost bought a second set from them but the ones I wanted were on back order and then I found my OEM SL550 wheels. See pic below. Any of the Mercedes wheels will fit but you usually have to run hub centric spaces in the rear if you want the wheel to fill the wheel well corectly. the Crossfire has 22mm off set in the rear and the MB wheels usually have 32-35mm offset.
