Looks nice!
Aren't these the wheels that come with the C32?

I like those cross drilled disc's. Looks good with those wheels.

those are the 18' from the next CLK55 AMG.

that is what i was looking for but those will NOT work on the C32 or any other C-class. i have ask my sales who was also looking for those for his C32

i sure do want those if they will fit...they look much better than my stock ones.

can't really remember but i think it's the width between each lugs for the new CLK is different than the C or the size of the lugs are different...not sure i'll ask again.

AMG is also making a split spoke wheel - 19" for the new SL. It is a multipiece wheel - same design as the one shown and the C32. But, I think it is different offset. I wished they made an 18" split spoke wheel for the C-class - I would have gotten those over the 17"s. Wheelexpert.com has them shown on their website.

Check the Mercedes AMG website. They now list an AMG split spoke wheel in 18" for the W203 sedan. I want those wheels too! But as a factory option. Don't want to end up with two sets of wheels.

i've checked the AMG site...i think the one they listed is the two piece double spoke in 18s.

it's probably very very expensive.

AMG does have one-piece and two-piece 18" wheels. Did you check this website?

Have you heard of anyone getting 18" wheels as a factory option? I'm not sure I want to get them from the dealer because they will rip me off.

the one in the picture is the new one piece 18 inch double spoke for CLK55 and E55. It will fit C class for sure. There is another one that looks exactly the same as the one on SL55 and it is 2-picec 18 inch double spoke. As far as i know....i seen both one and two piece on a C-coupe. So i am sure they will fit C/CLK/E/SLK.

9 out of 10 sales dont know anything about car tuning. The AMG 18" Style IV 1 or 2 pc WILL FIT on a C32 (and on any other C). If the official AMG website says yes, who can say no!!?? :p

Danny, are you sure the one you saw was a 2-pc? They shouldnt be out until end of Jan or first week of Feb! I wonder where the owner got it.

my sales would be the 1 out of 10 that knows these kind of stuff. you should know that this guy has a Brabus modded CLK, Brabus ML430 (sold), a C32 (modded and sold), a E500 sport with bodykit, muffler, suspension, etc from AMG, and a S500.

i ask him before AMG made it official and after he just sold his C32. Obviously he could careless about the C-class anymore, when he's planning on mods for his E500.

btw...here is a picture of his (used to be) car took by the guy who bought it from him.
