ya alex that one in the front is the one you guys are both talking about. The one in the bg is off a 210 e class, you can buy those if you want? might look gangsta
Nope want the ones in front 210 are too smooth, dont work with the body.
haha I think after he gets his set, I may still have 2 left over, don't quote me on that though, if I do though you could put 2 of them on the back of your 190 and make it look like a drift car
Car looks great, I bought the 10pt sockets on ebay as well. The construction looks ok, but for 45 dollars and since they perform perfect I have no complaints!

So you already have them in your possession? That's cool, I'm still waiting on mine. Ya for $45 for both you can't beat that, there were members on here trying to "rent" them to me for like $100+.
Connor- Alex is talking about my aero 1's. And ya Alex they're 17's. I don't have aero 2's Connor, those are the bbs/amg collaboration mine are OZ/AMG's aero 1's.
Nice merc, Love the amg's, that you finally started working on
Keep up the good work!
Ya I kno, I've been slacking on them, but while the car was down I didn't see it as a priority, but I'm going full steam ahead on them now. And thanks for the compliment =]
Daniel- yeah i got confused lol, arent the ones you have more rare than the aero ii's?
some say it is so, some say it is so
so update time now, and it's a good one
k, so to start off slow I started working on this front bumper to replace my banged up one
it's in pretty good shape even has the tow hook cover which is usually always broken or missing
so I started sanding, almost there
more progress
what it looks like now, should be painted either this week or the next
then shift gears into the day I came back from class to find this lil' package
aww f yeah
so I got started to working on the wheels
brewski, it's whats for energy
what the sockets look like
all the bolts taken off
the wheel with no bolts
the bolt...en...gers...???
lips taken off
fully split
then I put the face and lip onto one of the new 8.5 barrels, as seen here
the rears fit good, I was afraid they might rub on the inside but no rubbing/no contact
pics of rear fitment
then pics of front fitment (don't mind the paint, this is an extra fender I had lying around, remember my diesel one got wrecked)
then a pic of what it's gonna look like
So, with the trial pictures of the fitment, what do you guys think of it? Should I get bigger lips? What tire sizes are you guys thinking? I'm thinking the fitment is perfect and might just get the normal 1.5 lips for the rears, either that or 2.0 lips.
the sockets are good also if anyone is wondering about the quality. The 10mm fits kinda tight but I'd rather it be tight than sloppy and strip the nut.
the fun doesn't have to be over tho, if you wanna see more update goodness you can see my latest update on my other car here
