[@shahin00751]

Nice video... I heard u saying you still using ur Continental tires, are they run flat tires ? If yes can you tell me how they drive in snow n how RFT handeling or they weak ?

[@FrakkingCreations]

Yes. They are Continental ContiProContact “all-season” performance run flats. Unfortunately, i can't tell you if they drive well on snow or not as i change over to winter tires. They work fine in the zero degree weather on pavement or very light snow. Can't tell you on ice behavior though. Sorry.

[@sinnayamtv1456]

Nice car

[@FrakkingCreations]

Thank you

[@tbone1493]

FYI, OZ has some pretty strong wording in their booklet to not use locking wheel bolts/nuts under any circumstances. I was surprised to see that strong wording as I recently bought a set of OZ wheels also. Mine will be used for track days so locks aren't an issue for me.

[@FrakkingCreations]

Oh. I didn't know that. Thanks for the info

[@dogaaltinisik]

Hey nice vid, just a heads up C450 is not the same as C43. Believe it or not C450 front rims don't fit C43, but does the other way around. This is because MB reduced offset of C43 to ET33 for the fronts. (Don't know why, maybe fitting that mega 9speed was a prob).

[@FrakkingCreations]

Thank you. I appreciate the info!

[@xJ666TTY]

My current size is 7x17 ET46, will 7,5x17 ET 35 fit?

[@FrakkingCreations]

If you used the online sites like TireRack to buy, they already checked fitment for your car. Aside from that you have to check for your specific make, model and wheels. I won't be able to tell. I provided some websites for you to use in the video description. But I'll do better... Here is the best website I have found to date... Wheel-size.com Hope that helps

[@murraybozinsky2943]

did the wheel locks fit in the screw holes? you cant use regular bolts with this rims

[@FrakkingCreations]

The stock locks from Mercedes do not fit. The TPi ones i ordered (as shown in the video) do fit. There may be others that will fit. I am currently looking for another set that are patterned as i would like to use two locks.

[@newfresh75]

@@FrakkingCreations I heard it's not recommended to use two locks per wheels because you cannot tighten the locks same way you do for the other bolts, it can be unsafe..., What do you think?

[@FrakkingCreations]

I've never heard that. When you say tighten the same do you mean to same torque values? If you use a torque wrench and torque to the same values the I would think it would be same enough. The only thing I can think of is the seat (cone, ball, etc...) on the bolt or lug not having the same enough shape. Maybe this may result in it holding the same.

[@newfresh75]

A garage told me the locks should have less torque in order not to damage them, so if you put two locks per wheels, it became unsafe...I jus bought OZ wheels as well and I happen to have two set of 4 wheel locks but I’m not sure since I have been told that... I fitted only one set of wheel locks on the car, I don’t know if I should fit on the other set

[@coachong]

Can I know what’s the website you got it from?

[@FrakkingCreations]

The wheels were purchased from tirerack.com

[@aimenanwar1988]

What's the lug bolts size ?

[@FrakkingCreations]

Are you referring to the OZ lug bolt ball seat diameter? If so, the diameter is 22mm.

[@rstw1001]

Whats the width of this rim?

[@FrakkingCreations]

The set i have is 18x8 with offset +35. So the width is 8". Other sizes are available. I believe the range is between 7.5" to 12". It also comes in 17", 18" and 19" rim sizes and 8 or 10 spoke designs.

[@rstw1001]

Thx you... just wanted to know the weight for shipping purposes...great rims!!!!

[@serdarcanbulat3164]

[@FrakkingCreations]

These ones are 18"

[@serdarcanbulat3164]

Frakking Creations et?

[@FrakkingCreations]

They come in 17, 18 and 19 inch diameters

[@abijithraiyer]

22lbs is heavy for an OZ flow formed wheels. I think it should weigh lesser.

[@FrakkingCreations]

These are sized at 18x8. How much do you think they should weigh?

[@abijithraiyer]

@@FrakkingCreations I think it should weigh between 19 and 19.5lbs. Did you weigh the wheels on a weighing scale? If not, please weigh the wheels and let us know the exact weight
