Search for Mandrus Wheels

Cheers i searched that make and there very nice come across south west tyre's they seem pretty good but a long way from the midlands

Kleemann have got some corkers - would have been tempted if I hadn't just spent several arms and legs on the 19" AMG Styling IVs

 

[SJL]

Will do! what sort of prices are we talking for mandrus / kleeman / lorinser etc

 

[Scorcher]

Kleemann aren't cheap, but they do appear to be high quality - especially the 3 piece ones.

Email Steen at [email protected] for pics and prices

I'm thinking the same ... it's going to cost me £250 to refurbish the alloys and £350 for tyres, £600 in total. I can get a nice new set of alloys with tyres for £700 !

These guys get you to input the car type so you can see what the alloys will look like on your car (well, apart from the colour of the car)

There are some 18" AMGs being sold in the classified section

Agree, Kleemann wheels are nice i have a set of TS-7's on my C200K in the bodyshop at the mo being painted gloss black on the inside. The Kleemann website gives you a wheel configarator so you can see what the style will on look like on an MB before you buy.

17" Alshain Alloys

Hi there - I'm new to thjis and could really do with some help before I part with some cash to buy some alloy wheels. (I have checked the chart from the previous posting but can't make head nor tail of it).

Put simply, I have a 2002 (W202 I believe) C22o Cdi Classic. It has the small 15" wheels and I would like to upgrade them.

Can someone tell me if these will fit :
17" Alshain Alloys
2 x Fronts 7.5J 225/45/17
2 x Rears 8.5J 245/40/17

Many, many thanks in advance.

I sympathise with scourcer..I myself have the AMG style 4 but 18"..they are nice..but the kleemann alloys are beautifull..steen showed me a set on his wife's golf gti..they are amazing quality and light and beautiful finish..
If someone bought mine, i would jump at a change to won a set of Kleemann alloys..

Here's some pics of my Kleemann TS-7's on my C200K. They are currently in the bodyshop being sprayed black gloss on the inside.

You are right Kleemann wheels are very good quality, and have an excellent finish. I managed to get mine on a special deal with Steen something to do with sterling.

very nice shots..thanks..love the sheen on it..
