Lol, nice one. It's people like him that give AMG a bad name. At least he admits it =)

Maybe in their minds, an AMG badge would increase 50 hp? Alright, i know this is off topic, so Phil and I will end this conversation here.

These are the two wheels that are for sale. The fronts are still availible for $275.00 each plus shipping. These are 19x9.5 35ET and the fronts that are availible are 19x8.5 35ET. I have a pair of 5mm H&R spacers for the front if you have big brakes.

the 04.5+ models have larger brake
the wheels that will fit will have 17"+ diameter, and the same offset and width as your stock wheel

few hints,

look for wheels that doesn't have a big lip for the front and have at least 30-32 for the offset. Some 35 offset will also work but it depends on the design of the wheel.

look for European specific rims and not JDM style rims. Tirerack lists most wheels that will work for the sport sedan and if you click on the name of the wheel on the left hand side after selecting it through the wheel selector it often shows the offset for that specific wheels. You can give and take the offset from there based on the design hint, etc.

There isn't a definitive answer because there are many manufacturer out there even for the same replica rims. post in this thread if you have more questions.

Thumbs up

simply Awesome, I saw your car on the 15 near scripps, pre-new wheels and admired it, I am not usually a fan of black rims but on yours it totally works. Hopefully I'll see you again

Looking damn nice! So what did the wheels weigh? I'm interested to see how they compare to your stock wheels.

Sheez, now you have a head turner like Drex and Phil.
