2001 C6 Sport Package

Does anyone have this package on a 2001 or have pictures of the wheels that come with it? Someone had pointed out that I had erroneously stated I had a 16" AMG Style III - and they don't come in 16". Now that I look very closely (again, trying to compare a tiny pic to mine!), they are very similar but indeed not AMG Style III. Since I didn't buy the car new, I'm only going off what the first owner told me. She said she had changed what came with the car's sport package, but I can't find info anywhere. The one picture I did find in a review which supposedly had the C6 wheels was different than mine.

It's not all that important, but it's driving me crazy not knowing. I'm a bit obsessive, I admit it. Brownie points to whoever can help me out, redeemable for lots of good will.

This is what they look like, although these are 18's that were on ebay. But it's the same style. I'm sure these are aftermarket, but I didn't even know you could get them in 18's.

Yeah, almost definitely replicas. I wonder what the quality is. I like these rims, they're just too small. So 18's would probably look pretty good.

Thanks, guys! I appreciate it. That IS what I have... and I really like them, especially since I haven't seen them on any other Cs around here, I just wish they weren't 16's... I would really prefer a 17" or 18", but I haven't found anything I like better. (Or at least nothing on which I would consider blowing that chunk of change.)

*blush* In retrospect though, they ARE very different than the AMG style... The Style III were the only ones that looked similar out of MB's current offerings, so I just assumed. I wonder who makes these- in the past Ronal OEMed a good portion of the factory wheels for Benz, BMW and Porsche.

Brownie points to all!

I just keep telling myself at least I'll save money on tires... but as few miles as I drive, it's not much consolation.
