His rating and seller ratings seem legit. Sounds really good.

i think each wheel should have its own verification number (at least my OEM wheels i took of had one). maybe you can get them and get it verified just to be on the safe side

mig888

Oh good, go with Blake's... because well.. if you didn't, I'd have to kill you :\, haha. I wanted to buy his wheels a while ago - anyway - have you guys settled on shipping yet?

First, they are a replica and not the real thing. He says so in the ad. That tells me that someone is ripping off AMG as they have the logo clearly cast in to the wheel. For a cheap replica, the price sounds about right.

Second, I don't think they will fit the w203 cars. Look at where the spokes meet the rim and you can see that they are different than the factory C32 or C55 rims. He lists the older C class in the list of cars that they fit, but not the w203. I don't think there is enough off set to clear the brakes.

Caveat Emptor!

yep! all settled, finalizing it tomorrow!

yep, i know they're replicas. lol. i said that.

but they are still pretty nice!
what about his tires ppl?!

kickR

thats right around the corner from where I live

lol, really? check the out! i am interested in his rubber tho...

((Steel))

Yo...they aint bad for $545. So what if they're replicas. If you didnt know, you prolly couldnt tell the difference anyway. It sucks that someone is ripping off AMG rims, but hey, we're not all Bill Gates and we can't all afford to fork up 2 G's on some 18"s. You know where the factory is and how to get a hold of em if somethin happens, so what you got to lose. I say, congrats and enjoy your new fly *** rims hommee.

yeah, def. thats one way to look at it. i'm picky and need the real thing or nothing at all so it wouldnt be for me, but anyone else her who wants them let us know how it goes, but i think someone earlier said it doesnt fit teh w203. you can always call and ask though.

satch

They are nice looking. I like their chrome set for $725 but I also noticed that the W203 model was not listed in their fitment description. In addition, the spokes are not recessed like the originals. Nonetheless, they wouldn't be bad for the money if they fit.

Well, I was looking at some wheels from this company. They're on eBay as O E Wheels. I e-mailed them about the ///AMG logo stamped on what they say is a replica wheel. They in turn replied that they don't put AMG on the wheel, but rather stamp it with ///AME. And...if you look at the stamping closely in the pics they have, you can definitely tell its an "E" and not a "G". I guess E comes very close to looking like a G from far way. Regardless, they're still replicas.

ebay is a great source if you dont mind replicas. i'm thinking when i do end up selling my car later in the future i'll just sell the 2 sets of wheels i have and buy a set of these and put on the car or somethin. though tires are expenisve.

///AMC ftw....

C230 Sport Coup

I almost bought those until I found a set of AMG's on craigslist for 400 including
PS2's.

drexappeal

Thanks, MJ! My products are out everywhere. AMC wheels, AMC theatres. Just trying to figure out where else I can stamp my initials!...

Yeah the used market rate for AMG rims with tires is around $450-650 depending on the condition and how they ship 'em. The prices plumet b/c there just isnt' uch of a market for these rims especialy the smaller sized ones. People are going for 18" and larger.

I can't find it now, but I remember there was an ebay listing similar to the one posted in the first part of this thread that was $498 plus shipping. Careful when you buy b/c not all of them are staggered and you might need staggered for your setup. not sure on your particulars.
