HRE C-90's for CLK-63 Black

Here is the first set of C-90's for the Black. 10.5 rear w/295-30 PS-2 Michelin. 9.5 front w/275-30. Had good clearence and pushed them out for agressive look. New charcoal/pearl flake powder coat centers and brushed rims w/satin clear. Rides great. Will be dropping it an inch and doing alignment. Close up pictures to follow along with weights. I think in person it makes the car look more serious and agressive. More like a DTM Comp car. Will be getting the wing soon along with headers and full exhaust for off road only so you know what that means ! Steve

wow, looks good!! something different........

Looks great in every way.

keep us updated, looking clean so far.

looks nice but dam they look small?????????

That CLK63 BS looks very very mean, I like it.

Cant wait to hear your new exhaust setup.

very nice. i love silver cars w/ black center wheels.

Absolutely gorgeous!

The monoblocks, even though the same size, definitely give a bigger appearance since there are no centers and lips, and the wheel design runs right to the tire edge. However with a black wheel I still prefer having the contrasting rim.

So those are 19's? Tire Rack kept trying to tell me the PS-2's in those sizes would'nt fit when i was looking for a replacement for the PCorsas. I really wanted to avoid going to a 20 since the small sidewalls worry me. When you say "pushed them out for an agressive look", did you use spacers or was that just a result of the wheel offset?

Wow I cant get enough of seeing pics of the BS benz's. The wheels are beautiful and goes perfectly with the car!

wow super hott, makes it look more agressive

It looks sweet!!!

HRE Wheel Offset

They design wheels that fit precisely with the best offsets and performance in mind. Tire rack can't offer this custom feature. I have asked them for years to carry HRE products. I get tires from them also. HRE has a complete tire inventory and fit wheels and tires at their factory before going into production on a wheel. I often get new models of exotic cars. I go to their factory so they can take measurements. Their chief designer Chad, has specialized tools to take measurements. I think 20's would be a big mistake. The verdict on the PS-2's is not in yet. Corsa's are strong but Michelin's are a great tire and tend to be a few pounds lighter in the Cup series.
They really give you good feedback. PS-2's are a good safe choice for a street tire for rain and bad weather. Best regards, Steve
