    IM not sure if hating MB is refering to mike or 'benz but the wheels are sopt on. Ive ALWAYS thought these would look good on an e30 or e36, just to rich for my blood atm.

      That's the scary part.

      To fill up the arches and do a little bit of stretch, you need like 19x10 up front, 19x11 out back. Run a 245/275 setup so you still have plenty of tire with a bit of strech.

        but what do I know
        agreed yeah the wheels themselves are awesome, but they would look better on a Benz IMHO

          Where's the problem? Sounds good to me. I love fitment and all, but if you can make it functional fitment, thats extra points in my book. Like mike's e36, potentially your Z and a few others, thats definately what im going for.

                You may want to run some sock filters on the velocity stacks, don't want to have any issues after all that work.

                          once again pushing the limits. I don't think I would have lived to see the day someone puts benz rims on a bmw.

                                Benz wheels are whack on a BMW. The re-drill job is beyond perfect though. At least just put AMG center caps and not the star. Other than that props for the swap and the quality video. Thumbs up for the AST's and the velocity stacks.
