WTB: 17" Staggered AMG Wheels/tires

I'm looking to purchase a set of OEM 17" AMG rims for a Mercedes SLK230 sport. I believe the wheels off of a CLK430 would fit as well. The fronts are 17x7.5 in the front and 17x8.5 in the rear. Ideally the tires would have a good amount of tread left on them and obviously I'd like to have as little curbing/scratching as possible. OEM only! No aftermarket knockoffs, please.

Here's a pic of a car on Ebay with wheels like I'm looking for.

do you think 18x8.5 and 18x9 wheels off a S 430 would work . If so I have a great set up with Factory AMG Wheels and Tires

You're like an hour away, so let me ask my dad who is more mechanically inclined than I, and I'll get back to you. What are you looking to get for them, and do you have any pictures? I'm 7 miles from I-65 Exit 22, so local pickup would be easy.

Edit: My email address is severecaraddict@aol.com

So far I've found them for $175 per wheel, and I'll be looking @ at LEAST $225 or so per tire.

Thumbs up 17x7.5 & 17x8.5 Amg Wheels

I have a set that I bought from another forum member last year. I never was able to use them due to the fact that I have a big brake kit on the front that they will not fit over. $550 for all four. Shipping would be at your expense. I will try to get some pictures together for you by tommorrow.
