WIDEBODY MERCEDES pt.2 - HOW TO PICK WHEELS FOR YOUR WIDEBODY + $40 EXHAUST MOD SL500 R129

[@iamdigbick4675]

I love you when start a new build, but I really want to see some of the things you've already started be finished.

[@br4d101]

They will never be finished, project cars lol

[@ZacCjw]

You must be the one friend that everyone calls their "second wife"..... Sadly I think I may be one too 😅

[@qmmadi]

I think 2 videos ago he explained the game plan. He will finish them faster now

[@iamdigbick4675]

@@qmmadi I know he did. That doesn't change that I want to see one of the projects get finished. Try starting projects around your house and not finishing them. Then move onto another project don't finish that one either, and start another a third or fourth. I'm sure your wife would kill you.

[@BUILTOFFICIAL]

Whats up Richard, heres a quick personal breakdown to encourage you a bit. I realized about 3 months ago that I took on too many projects this year (got a new space and got too excited) so I started dialing some things back and bringing help in for others so we could see some of them finished. The MG is at the body shop and should be painted this week or next week, they had to work it longer than they thought. The mustang is getting exhaust and tune (also taking longer than planned), the fatsun is much further away from being done than the internet sees so I put it on hold to finish the projects that I could actually finish this year. This year you WILL see the mercedes finished, mg finished (minus full interior), and mustang finished. I'm almost a month ahead of what I'm releasing on youtube. Thanks for the patience just know I'm aware of the problem its just taking me months to dig myself out of this hole

[@zeesgymnastics1088]

Back to the computer after taking a break for the holiday and I have THREE NEW BUILT VIDEOS waiting!! It's like Christmas early!!

[@RegulusTV]

Dude your killing it with these videos I never get bored watching them

[@BUILTOFFICIAL]

thanks so much!

[@joshuabrown6138]

Gonna be a nice stance after its dropped and boxed... offset tips was great info i never knew how to configure offsets so I say great job and love the wheel cut views..something about straight steering wheel pics is boring for me 😄 ...she sounds better cant wait to see the sound fit the look! Over all your doing an awesome job loving the build so far! #semifinals #lookingforthewin

[@BUILTOFFICIAL]

Thanks man! The car will start to get lowered on this weekends vid!

[@angeloschlosz6961]

Your video quality is on point, brother!

[@BUILTOFFICIAL]

Hi, love your channel....I got 1998 SL500 and my seat adjuster someworks and sometime not. Do you know why ?

[@ajayblake5110]

I like it already , looking forward to the rest of it

thanks!

[@sheldon.1003]

Hard to get excited foe this build when you know it's not gonna get finished like most of the other builds from this channel

[@BUILTOFFICIAL]

Come back in 3 weeks 😉 I'm a month ahead of you

[@sheldon.1003]

@@BUILTOFFICIAL I really hope so, I honestly love your channel and everything ypu do on it but it feels like we've been waiting on the fatsun for forever 😪

They all came with one originally it wasn’t an option

[@JustHere2oComment]

Will he finish the build… stay tuned for the next 8 episodes of the Merc, followed by the introduction of a new build….. smh 🤦🏻‍♂️ This is why this channel struggles to gain new subscribers… I’ve subbed and unsubbed like 3-4 times already. Potential is there, just not the consistency.

[@StaredownGames]

It IS annoying but you gotta juggle because parts/waiting is even more annoying. He HAS to build. If he don't he starts making cars out of paper!

[@BUILTOFFICIAL]

hahaha this comment is hilarious and true

man that thing needs 20' weds bazreia's man

[@BUILTOFFICIAL]

haha right!?

[@sk8klown88]

The production quality is just going up! So stoked to see how this channel has grown from DIY car mods. You’re the man!

[@BUILTOFFICIAL]

thanks do much!

[@petescarport]

So similar to what I’m doing on my widebody r129 build. I used same spacers but have wider rims. Love the build. Would love to see you check out what I’ve done too.

[@BUILTOFFICIAL]

love the car dude

Hell yea !!! Exhaust and wheels my favorite first mods 👍.....can't wait to see what aggressive kit you come up with going to be exciting

[@BUILTOFFICIAL]

aggressive is an understatment

[@kyddzofcali]

@@BUILTOFFICIAL man I wana see something scary 🤣

[@n.montana1858]

I got some replica Aero 3 for mt 2001 SL500 and the wont fit. What size spacers do i need? Was thinking 10mm and 15mm in rear?

[@jimmypage4162]

What kind of muffler was that? I have identical car but black interior. Your muffler sounds really good

[@mihaivisovan5691]

Man... with those spacer you can throw 325/30 19' on it... I run 285 on two of my cars without any mods

[@Jg02468]

The production level of your videos have definitely increased and they look great. As always the content is awesome! Excited to see the wide body kit!

[@BUILTOFFICIAL]

thanks so much!

[@DollMakesIt]

Love seeing the higher quality editing and filming! Keep it going! 🤘🏼

[@BUILTOFFICIAL]

thanks derek! stoked you guys are loving it

[@AveB75]

DIY custom headlights/ taillights?? 🤔

[@StaredownGames]

That'd be cool! I remember "back in the day" people would just tape on circles, paint over it, peel circles, CUSTOM lol

[@BUILTOFFICIAL]

hmmmm maybe. time is of the essence with this build

[@benvanbaak]

Those spacers are bad because they dont have anything for the rim to center on... You should get some that do otherwise it will be awfull to drive.

[@haakonhirt670]

The ones you're recommending, that's what called hubcentric, right?

[@Jaxson8157]

@@haakonhirt670 yes, hubcentric spacers have a hub lip for the rim to center on and help disperse load.

[@benvanbaak]

@@haakonhirt670 Had to look it up, but yeah hubcentric.

[@BUILTOFFICIAL]

I use hubcentric when I can but lug centric isnt bad it just means you need to pay attention when tightening the lugs. Acorn nuts exist to center the wheel

[@benvanbaak]

@@BUILTOFFICIAL if that is working for you that is ok, I've never had succes with those. Keep up the good work tho! Love the show ;)

[@RumRaspberryMocha]

Looks super cool! Back in the day we’d just run our muscle cars or mini trucks with the wheels poking out all insane like that! 😎

[@BUILTOFFICIAL]

haha the good ole days

[@bartlettsplayroblox1753]

THAT EXHAUST SOUNDS SO SEXY! i drive a hyundai i800 with a 2.5l Turbo Diesel. No chance of this sound!

[@BUILTOFFICIAL]

thanks!

[@Nathan_King]

German" and "budget", the lie that won't die! Those were really cool cars though. I just got the DWS 06 plus and they are fantastic tires. Surprised quiet for the amount of grip you get.

[@BUILTOFFICIAL]

haha true

[@danielnellis219]

Retrofit? Plastiweld? Bumpers?

[@Grimm-Gaming]

those tires are the exact same i put on my 1st gen Scion xB! 40mm wider then stock and DAMN it gripped so nice in the rain. "105hp 2350lbs"

[@BUILTOFFICIAL]

thats rad!

[@Grimm-Gaming]

@@BUILTOFFICIAL thanks. It was real slow though.. Also a 1st gen boxy xB seems perfect for your threatment

[@antonypye7666]

It needs some 4in twin pipes hanging out back

[@AshGTE]

Maybe put some box flare arches on it like a E30 M3.

[@BUILTOFFICIAL]

just wait til you see em

[@emilfeta5324]

There is a welder next to the car and quick jacks, and you went to a exhaust shop, but why?

[@BUILTOFFICIAL]

time

[@See-through-The-Veil]

Oh my… What have you done to that beautiful near classic motor.. $40 exhaust 😳😂😂.. I’ll bet the engine purrs like a lion that’s been killed.. Revving it up lol I nearly spat my coffee out.. Spluttering like 🤣🤣 Boy do you know your cars… Cars have certain exhausts for a reason, do you know that reason… I’ll be surprised if it lasts 3 months, and just looks absolutely ridiculous to have the wheels sticking 12” out of the arches.. Take a video where you take it round a track ! And really give it the beans, straights and bends.. No disrespect mate, but I’d worry if you changed a puncture on my lads mtb.. 😂😂😂

[@justinbeigh75]

Just because he changed the exhaust system to what he did does not mean anything! Less restrictive exhaust creates more power. The only reason the stock exhaust was put on it was to…. A. Cut down the loudness of the car because most Merc. owners don’t want a loud car they want luxury. B. The emissions laws C. More part failures more money in repairs. In which everyone knows one wheel on these cars is enough to buy probably a new set of any normal cars rims!

[@BUILTOFFICIAL]

That was the rev limiter lol not a sputter, exhausts have nothing to do with a car being able to run

[@kobiwalter6828]

when you gonging to finish the fadsun?

[@kylemcweeny878]

I beat on my mercedes with stacked spacers all day long for 5 years with no issues

[@BUILTOFFICIAL]

and thats why you belong here kyle

[@mx577]

Japanise wheels on a Mercedes? I would choose a more classic and elegant wheel

[@BUILTOFFICIAL]

this thing will be all but elegant

[@nathanhawey455]

niceeee like what you do

[@mk2vrt]

Did this boy just try explain how to know your ordering the right size wheels then buys spacers and completely looks like a numb .nothing has changed sense the audi.hack,hack,hack

[@BUILTOFFICIAL]

how do you think I knew what size spacers to get?

[@mk2vrt]

@@BUILTOFFICIAL you didn’t you bought two sets. Lol

[@mk2vrt]

@@BUILTOFFICIAL and you don’t put spacers if you order the right off set to begin with. Spacers are dangerous and not legal to be on any road in the USA according to dot standards

[@benjamindavidson632]

Another important thing is to get the correct lug nuts and or bolts. I run 1 1/2 spacers on my fj since 2007 and they are fine. Sometimes towing, offloading and never an issue.
