What wheels are these?
These were posted for sale on craigslist, and the seller lists them as OEM E63 wheels. I know these are not OEM E63 wheels, but what are they? I actually like this design, very close to the E63, but a little bit different. The only thing I would worry about is that they are replicas, but they have the AMG logo stamped in, so I have no idea.
Any idea?

I am not sure of the manufacturer of that particular replica, however, there are cheap replicas and then there are high quality replicas. I would not purchase that particular set as you do not know who the manufacturer is.

Good question motorkas.
In general most aftermarket replicas are made in Taiwan or China. Nothing wrong with that as Mercedes Honda, Toyota, VW are sourcing wheels from certified plants out there that meet the manufacturing standards set by their engineering for cars also manufactured there.
The wheels should meet/exceed international quality standards, something the vendor should be able to provide to you.
We have personally audited over 15 factories and we work with the best one. It has OEM production with Mercedes Honda and VW and the wheels exceed all international quality standards, JWL, VIA and some wheels exceed the notoriously hard to pass TUV certification. The wheels also go through X-ray inspection to ensure there are no cracks or air pockets that would compromise their structural integrity.
The paint and clear coat are OEM quality and that allows us to offer the BEST warranty out there with 2 year on the finish.
We also guaranty fitment! If they don't fit we will not only give you your money back, we will also pay for shipping them back to us as well as your original shipping. We want to make buying wheels from us a 0 risk experience to our good customers.
Lastly our prices are unbeatable. Feel free to visit the gallery on our website to see some of our customers cars.
