hey, guys.....i got good deals on OZ rims called OPERA III, 3-pc design with the size of 20x8.5 in front and 20x9.5 in rear.
tires are not included. the price i paid for was $2000.00!!!

these rims retail fr almost $1000.00 a piece for 20inch......
all in all you would have spent $5000.00 just for the wheels, and no tires....

im going to sell my brabus monoblock V rims, i have no use of them now. if any of you are interested, pm me and i will give you more details.

i posted the brabus wheels on "classified" forum, but that will change. the rims are 20x8.5 all around with 255/35/20 tires, about 75% left....thy're off the car now.

i will post some pics later.

haha. nice set of rims. i just type on e-bay oz opera and found you as the highest bidder at 1999.

that guys sells a grip of "knock offs" bmw and mercedes rims. tell me how your rims are man. i want to buy the exact same rims. i love that "amg" look man. that be sweet if i had the exact same rims. you with the white car. me with the black. we will "roll" in style man.

indy,
i've had my eyes on the same rims from thewheelexchange. i tried to buy it from them before christmas but they don't accept international credit cards. i ended up buying the last set from OZ USA last friday for a little more than what you paid for. i'm just waiting for confirmation from them that the purchase went through okay. we both made a good choice! look up bananags and 2lexos they have the same wheels but smaller...i think?
btw in case you didn't know here are the specs for the rims:
The aproximate weight per wheel is 28lbs-31lbs for the 9.5". The outter channels are 20"x 1" AND 20"X2". Not as deep as other jdm wheels but definitely classy...imo. post some pic's when you get yours all set up. i may have to wait for a bit to save up for the tyres. what tyres and size would you be going for?

keep in touch,
geees

yeah, man.....i cant wait til i get those rims hopefully by next this friday orsomething. damn, i have to find out when exactly is coming so i can take half day off or something.

jmai22: i hope thy dont give me those knock-offs man...or else i'l knock them off myself.....ha.h.aha....nah, dont think it's a replica. it has that stamp in the front. i mean, most replica's dont have any stamp at all....like the amg wheels fr benz. ive seen them before and you can tell it's a total "replica" of the original amg wheels.

my whole body kit is still in the shop, bumpers, door panels, wing, and side skirts. it will be done by this coming wednesday so perfect timing for my "new" wheels to be mounted this week.

i can'twait you guys. the car will look so much different now. something new for "2003".....!!!...gee, i think i've gotten so many presents for this x-mas.......dont u think? paint job, new rims, clothes, ???......ha.h.ah.aha

also, im thinking of using the 2nd generation fog lights, the yellow ones. i would like to put projectors there but not sure which ones. i have to see.


i will post some pics.....

gees:

yeah, i saw "bananags" and "2lexos".....their rims i believe are 18 or 19 inch. do you also got the 20inch operas? how much did you pay for them?

dont know what tires im going to use fr these rims. since, it's a staggered look, what tires wud you recommend? i wz thinking of having 26530/20 in the rears and 255/30/20 in the front. tell me if i'm wrong and correct me. not too sure what size is applicable.

tks, dude

indy,
i'm trying to get the last set of stagered 20's from OZ. as for the tyres i'd consider 245 or 255 35 20 for the front and 285 30 20 for the rear. yeah i can't wait to hear from oz if i did get their last stagered set. the total for the four wheels 20x8.5 front and 20x9.5 rear is $2096.00 there is a $35.00 hardware kit which includes aluminum locking centering rings and all of the lugs you
will need for mounting. The approximate shipping is $100.00 to canada from fla.

keep in touch,
geees

Jmai22

man, i would buy it from you, you know i would. but i want to lower my car, then get rims. lol

2Lexos

yeah......i have the Opera II's and everyone loves the way they look.....and they came off a sl500 at that. and they are 18x9 up front and 18x10 in the rear........and i got them 2 years ago for $2k with tires

Jmai22

does mercedes have same bolt pattern as us?

2Lexos

no....they are off by 2mm so i got them drilled

indypwr

yup, same for my brabus...i had them drilled to fit my car...not much difference....though
