Hey, I am looking to buy some replica Brabus VI's, I found these on Ebay and they look pretty good... Really feeling the black ones, has anybody had any experience with these ones or this seller? Appreciate all feedback!

They were Replica Brabus wheels 19" staggered. But I did not get them from that Seller. Beware when buying those wheels, some dont look as good as others.

Search, there was a thread on this previously.

On the side note, I have the those Brabus MONO VI reps. A little disappointed on how they looked but it still looks good. check my gallery.

yea too bad they didnt come staggered, like 8.5 up front 9.5 in the back..gives it a mean stance....i liked the black 19"s that he had too..but those were only 8" wide, which seems too skinny for a 19" wheel...and was it me or did the cars kid of look funny in the pictures the seller had posted towards the bottom of the rim...almost looked lopsided...

If you look closely in all the pictures. They're all photoshopped. Look closely and you will see that the brake caliper are all facing the same direction even the the cars are facing the other.

Yea, i know that the pictures are all photo shopped... I didn't car much. But i can not get staggered :( My father said that it was dangerous for my, i don't know how it is but he did and he would not change his mind. The one bad thing about not even being a junior in high skool is that i still have to listen to my dad! But whatever, As long as they look pretty good and drives pretty wheel I'm happy... I still have the nicest car in my grade!

I hope those offsets work for you because it says that they are for MLs and older SLs...

I couldn't see any offsets mentioned in the ads. According to the following site, 18 x 8.5 requires an offset between 25 an 35:
