HRE's are on!
 
They finally came in after 3 weeks to make. Had Shoreline do the work here in HB.

19" HRE P40s in Textured Black 8.5 Front 9.5 Rear on PS2's 235/35 & 265/30 with H&R lowering springs. You really feel the difference of more grip on the road..

Enjoy the pics http://www.mbworld.org/forums/images...es/biggrin.gif !!

Looks great! The P40's look perfect on the C63. Gives it the aggressive look it needs. :cool: I will wait for pictures of the C63 and C2S together.

I love it looks great!

I would have left the HRE caps instead, my.02, just cause there are to many HRE copies out there running MB caps.

Good Job WB!

RFFG Jun 14, 2010 01:54 PM

way ahead of you, they are in the mail from HRE. I prefer the silver & black HRE logo caps also

Oh no!
Another kopykat of all-blacked out wheels??
When is this fad going to end.
Not only is it not attractive but it's silly.
Why spend extra coin on wheels that disappear because of the black-out?
If you want wheels that disappear just paint the stockers black. Same effect....a whole lot less coin wasted.

↑ ignore the haters. The wheels look incredible on your ride. Great taste! I am thinking of doing these or similar style DPE's in bronze on my white C63. Bronze wheels are the new "FAD" on white cars hilarious

For you internet racers that only see these cars in pictures, yes sometimes an all black wheel can hide the design slightly but in person i'm sure its quite effective. I've had black wheels on many of my cars and everyone always seemed to love them, in person. I currently have a more "normal" color which hasn't yielded many compliments at all.

As a matter a fact, my CCW's are coming apart tonight to get the black treatment...:cool:

I'm no hater, instead I have been doing this longer than some of you were born. I happen to like wheels with black center and shiny or painted lips. It needs a contrasting finish to bring it out. Blacked-out causes the wheel to disappear. No way I'm gonna spend thousands on a wheel you can't see.

Dino V Jun 15, 2010 09:47 PM

looks good!

jenk12m Jun 15, 2010 09:50 PM

looks good, i need to stop being lazy and put mine back on

mr chaz tsai Jun 16, 2010 02:43 AM

great choice for your C63! I'm still waiting on my wheels to come in

Not trying to be a life coach but just for future reference, when you are trying to make a point, don't preface your comments by putting down your audience. There are plenty of people who have been around longer than myself who still have no clue.
