Work Brombacher 5x112 :)

My wheels finally arrived after a 3 month wait. I am pretty happy with the color and size i just now have to see what type of work i will have to do to fit them. I already knew going into this that it wasnt going to be a simple fit and it was also difficult because i didnt have that many other MB owners to ask for advice. I'm taking it slowly ordering parts so it may be a couple of months before they are on. I already talked to Mike @ Original Garage and hope to get the suspension done this summer.

2004 CLK500

19x9+19 L disk (15mm spacer to clear calipers) effective +4

19x10-0 A disk

Burning Black

i am currently sitting on 19's. the last pic is on 19's. need more low lol still figuring out what tire sizes to go with.

i'll have to look into the suspension some more and get with you to order the coilovers with some custom spring rates unless we can work something out and the stock ones are fine. pm me your number again because i got a new phone.

i was also wondering if my friend Mike with a 370 called you. he was also interested in a front cup kit. he already has BC coils.

I've built a lot of mercedes wheels man.....and this is definitely the most aggressive set-up I've ever seen for a W209 CLK! :crunksd:

So here is my advice on trying to make them fit:

1. Roll fenders.
2. Pull fenders (get it done at a good body shop).
3. Lower with coilovers .
4. Add some serious camber
5. Add some more camber after that!
5. 215/35 front & 235/35 in rear!

From my experience....19X10 @ ET:25 is between flush and poke (depending on what angle your looking at the car from)!

Can't wait to see it finished Bro!!!

Thank you guys very much i really appreciate it. As B.Gorman said i plan to take care of this soon as what he said is the plan. Seen all of your work on mbworld. Great stuff. I already purchased the rear camber arms and still looking for camber adjustment for the front. Only thing i have seen is the kmac kit. Was looking at either a 215/35, 235/35 or 225/35, 245/35 but i hardly have room to work with in the rear. I am taking care of all of the maintenance stuff at the moment before the suspension goes on.

Like the wheels and finish. If 19X10 @ ET:25 is flush/poke it shouldn't be too difficult to fit them. Looking forward to seeing it done, hardly see the clk done up this way:biggthumpup:
