i have a pair... need to check if my other friend wants it but ill let you know... although i dont need em... did you need a pair or a set of 4?
Anybody need a set of 15mm?? They are absolutely brand new, hubcentric, and 66.5 bore. I did a short test fit with them and they ended up rubbing in the rear. I figure 10mm will be perfect if anybody has a spare set.. let me know! Looking for $50 shipped

Yeah just let me know! I only need a pair so I could swing by and trade you! I live like 30 minutes from Fremont!
ill let you know asap.
any word yet wichi??
i sent him a text... still waiting for a reply.
sorry he's getting em...
damn, thanks anyways. The offer is still open to anyone who needs some 15mm's brand new!
what offset are your wheels? and what tire size you running?
They are the OEM 18 inch monoblocks all 4 are 18x8 et 31. Running 225/40/18 up front and 235/40/18 in the rear. I'm also lowered, so the 15mm spacers actually rubbed the plastic side trim pieces, not the fender. 10mm spacers should solve the problem though.
where is the rub? front or rear?
The rub is in the rear with the 15mm spacers. However, I just put in 10mm instead and there is no more rubbing, just perfect stance
I will get pics up by tomorrow, but it is a strange phenomenon that I rub in the rear. Keep in mind that the fender itself did not rub with 15mm's in the rear, but instead the plastic trim on the bumper rubbed.
In addition, it rubs significantly more on the passenger side of the car because the entire car sits about 3-5mm lower on the passenger side. I even rub my inner wheel well on my front passenger wheel when turning. I think this is because of a previous accident that the car had which involved a well done, but not perfectly accurate frame repair. It's pretty obvious to me that my passenger side looks absolutely flush with the 10mm spacer in the rear, but the driver side looks like it needs a 12mm spacer instead of 10mm to even it out. Any thoughts?
hmmm... that's kinda weird... was the frame repair done when you owned the car or previously?
It was a previous owner who got in an accident and repaired it. Unfortunately, I was unaware of the frame damage until I had already purchased the car. The repair was checked out by multiple mercedes auto shops and they said it was a good repair job, but there is still the difference in height between the left and right side of the car. I've also had all my major suspension components replaced within the last 10,000 miles, including tie rod ends, front lower control arm bushings, shocks and springs, ball joints, and wheel bearings.
Also on a side note, what do you honestly think of the new exhaust setup I have with the catless test pipe? I'm looking for opinions on whether its a little too loud or not..
idk i have to hear it.. you have a 280 right?
no its a 2000 c230 kompressor with intake and I just completed my exhaust which is 2.5" from the header to the Lorinser muffler
