Building 20" MAE

Hello has anyone here built up MAE Crown Jewels before?

I'm looking to build up some centers I bought on ebay to 9,5-20 with ET 33-34 front and ET 35-36 rear. Probably with 3-3.5" dish

Do I have to use these? I was thinking rather using gold bolts. What size are the bolts? M7?

Not sure if I need spacers, these are 360x36 discs inside 19's I have 8-pots with 390x36 discs

as long as the disk doesn't hit the face don't worry about spacers... is the backspacing on the disk the same? or different between a pair?


.. not sure about bolt size lol... but let us know if you find anything

one of the coolest things about this wheel (not a crown jewel btw) is the inverted hardware, which are unique to this model. i'd reuse the original hardware. you can always have them plated.

Yes I know they are unique (and not MAE but SGA :rules:, embarrased) , which also means very expensive. 540 euro for all 4 wheels, pluss shipping....

Gold would look better with the colour of the car. I will be painting the AMG calipers blue with gold lettering

The car in question ( Here on BBS RS GT)

with gold center
