nice!!

but please tell me something..

that 9,5" rear wheels...what is the ET?

I have a set of alphards at home that go to the car on saturday, but the rear ET is 40 (on 9,5") and I think they will need spacers... you're running spacers?

The offset is 33 in the rear but I plan on getting a 25mm spacer and running at +8

Lets see this dom!

ill snap a few pics after work also did a stud conversion

so what we can see in the pictures is 9,5 et33 without spacers? or in the pics you allready have the 25mm spacer?

in the pics seems perfect to me, if it is without spacer I think you don't need them...

those style 5's? Finally, someone is doing it. I've wanted to do it for so long, cause they're so cheap, and lets face it, there's really not an affordable mesh wheel for 5x112. I was gonna do it, but found a rare set of 3 piece wheels that I'm in the middle of refurbishing. Are you gonna do a re-drill or you just doing an adapter? I liked the pictures from Auktane of your car, but I don't dig the mustache, too cheesy for such a clean car as yours is, plus you pulled off those wheels nicely. Sorry for the rant, I like MB projects

Yes sir BBS Style 5's and exactly my reasoning haha loved the wheels and ive never seen them on a mercedes before. Im going to be running 15mm adapters from Adaptec Speedware putting me at an offset of +5 still undecided on what size tire to go with either a 205/40 or a 215/35 not sure which will give more clearance

As for the mustache it has been removed haha what 3 piece wheels did ya get man? cant wait to see them!

nice, I don't know much about tires, so...not too many mercedes out there to base stuff off. Might wanna look through the database and see what people are running on similar specs. Sounds good on the stache' lol, not ****** on it, just seemed too clean of a car to do that to it.

I was trying to keep the wheels a surpreese but they're the oz/amg wheel that for some reason seems like every e36 has now, so...now they don't look that rare lol. But I just bought new barrels, actually am gonna be running a custom setup and not the normal 8.5/10 setup, still will be staggered though, but due to complications have to do my own custom setup. I'll prolly update my thread this weekend once I get them in Sat...
