Re: Mercedes SLR 722 Wheels

I too would like to know. There is a thread here about a show in Hong Kong. Check this thread. http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbul...d.php?t=662815
Someone built one and from the pic it looks like the correct wheels are on it.

Let us know how you make out.

Mike.

They are pretty close. The problem is the SLR has 19" wheels and the Toyota is 18" and is a single nut. Having looked at the wheels I think they would be pretty easy to scratchbuild. It really is a pretty simple design.

Since we are on the topic of SLR's does anybody know a good match for the Brabus SLR wheels, I wouldn't mind building that too. They are 20"
