This car looked incredible with the ULs and Michelin PS2 tires.

yes it does

BrabusClK04 · 10-06-2004, 07:26 PM

wow, those cost a GRIP

Kev04C320 · 10-06-2004, 11:24 PM

Looks nice, but might need to lower the front end a little bit more

jwtire · 10-07-2004, 12:02 AM

I agree. I wish the CLK had the same option as being able to simply purchase an Electronic Lowering Module.... That unit sells very well.

My favorite wheels

UL's are great wheels. But it is simply over priced IMO. Ronal produces wheels for most of german tuners and some BBS wheels. 1/16 is gorgeous yet the design has been around for a while. UL needs some justification for its crazy price of 7700.

Tezta · 10-07-2004, 11:29 AM

how much for 20" normally? Isnt it like 10K?

Ducman · 10-07-2004, 11:45 AM

I like them,But cost an arm and a leg

JLee81 · 10-07-2004, 12:44 PM

20's don't fit CLK unless you do 8.5 all around. I asked my guy about it. It just won't work with staggered setting.

theitalianjob · 10-07-2004, 01:05 PM

damn. DROOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLL

jwtire · 10-07-2004, 02:18 PM

Yes, they are rather expensive wheels. They are not however produced by Roanl. (many other German turner wheel are) For the money you get a extremely beautiful wheel that is light weight and Merced Benz Exclusive.
20’’ on a CLK is the wrong move. Stick with a better suited 19x8.5’’ and 19x9.5’’ or 19x10.0’’ and lower the car. That is the best fit for the W209.
The Uls are not for everyone, we sell a lot more wheels from Avus which are 3pc forged and cost much less, most people agree that the price is out of their league, but for a select few…..

DTMCLK · 10-08-2004, 12:13 PM

1/16 UL is my dream wheels...

unfortunately i only can afford 1/16 BE 18in staggered 8.5 front and 10in rear..

I love BE wheel.... very nice finished and polished.

I also have obsidian black exterior...which matches the BE very nicely..

I didnt go for 19in because of performance and comfort respect. but im sure with 19in on will look like show car

BenzoManNY · 10-15-2004, 08:12 PM

I think they look sweet Id buy the Replicas they look identical and the Carlsson caps fit.

in NYC the way we break and bend rims I realized its not worth it anymore, a replica breaks its $200 versus$1000 so it doesnt feel so bad.

verone · 10-15-2004, 10:51 PM

nice car!

RohithT · 10-16-2004, 04:40 PM

Anyone know the typical price difference and weight difference between the UL's and the BE's in 19's or 18's?

MikeL · 10-17-2004, 10:28 PM

Looks good, but it also looks like a 4X4.. The car need to be lowered

verone · 10-18-2004, 12:45 AM

you can never be toooooo low

BenzoBoi · 10-29-2004, 01:50 PM

Awesome car and even better rims. Like it's been said before...too expensive for my blood...but for the people who get them...I bow to you...
