not really... i think i decided. the breyton spirit reps.

here is the pic of the NAD wheels, but on a Merc E350/E300 :thumbsdown:

I don't think those are the NAD wheels on the Merc, I think they are MRR GTs like what I have.

I've seen the nads in person..but the price is what swayed me to what I have now. They quoted me around 700 more for the nads than what I have now. Herb gave us a HUGE discount but of course I'm a bit biased ;p

Here's a pic of the Nad's on a E60:

busta u almost got ripped off if u had bought the NADs.

i got quoted for NADs for 1450 w/o tires from a place near my parents work, 20x8.5 f and 20x10 r. the funny thing is i was quoted from some place 3200 w/ tires for the NADs .

yeah I shopped around and had a few crazy quotes from 2600 all the way upto 3500 for the Nad's...but I already had my mind set on DTMautowerks (herb).

One thing I wanted to add...is that the Nad's did have a slightly better silver finish to them than what I have. The rears are 10" which is a plus (mine are 9.5) and 4" lip (mine are 3"). I recommend you look at both in person before purchasing.

I'm getting the M5 bumper and shadowline trim in a few weeks. I like the cleaner M5 bumper compared to the mtech.

I love my wheels so far, no complaints other than I had a little bit of rubbing with my rears, but after having my fenders rolled that went away. The ride quality has been awesome, no vibrations, no harshness going over bumps, they've been great.
