Thanks guys! I'm super pumped about the wheels as well. Unfortunately they will have to be pulled apart again this winter to have them re-clear coated. There are quite a lot of blemishes in the lips and on the hardware that need to be addressed in addition to some complete clear coat failure on the back of the wheels.
Got the tires mounted last week in an attempt to make it to Scrapefest which was last weekend. Long-story-short, it didn't happen. More on that in a later post. For now, here's some pictures of my buddy Lance mounting up my Achilles tires on the SSR's with his super fancy new Snap-On mounting machine.

My sealing work between myself and another friend. Three passes of high-temp clear silicone over three days. Smoothed out each pass and torqued to spec after the second pass. Looks like it was factory done!

THE PROJECT LIVES ON! SORT OF.
Have no clue how active people are on the forum anymore. The project had a long hiatus thanks to a lot of bullshit caused by a dishonest business owner and a lot of stolen shit from my Benz. So, it was back a bunch of steps and money saving/effort building until I was able to get the car going again.
Selling the copper and black chrome plated SSR's! And the car will be for sale very soon. Check my IG for detail. @daar_creative1992 Mercedes 190 E | 2002 DTM Inspired IS300 | IG @ DAAR_CREATIVE

I wish there was a way to get a resurgence of people on here somehow. Maybe I'll hit up Mike and see if we can get something going...
