ya, that is a pretty good deal. you could probably ride those til the tires die then still sell the rims later on to recover some of your purchase price.

But these 18 inch are also nice, but OEM much to expensive, so 2000 USD is not much for original AMG's We pay more here for replica's

The problem is the wheels are heavy so you are not gaining anything in the performance category.

Also the ad states no wheels sensors which will have to be added or risk a malfunction reading on our cars. This will be a few hundred dollars plus having to take the wheels off and installing them. Not just a buy and bolt on type of deal.

If these are the wheels you are talking about we can get them from Advan in our bolt pattern and be much lighter as well. I just need to see if we can get a closer offset to ours(50,54) than the 35mm listed.

$2000 is a bargain considering how much MB wants for them.

Petje, I like those rims.

Just noticed:

For sale is a complete set of factory 18" wheels & tires from a 2008 Mercedes Benz C63 AMG. These wheels/tires have 900 miles on them and they are in like new condition with no scratches or dings. The tires are Pirelli P-Zero's. There are NO tire pressure monitoring sensors in these wheels. You will also need to have these wheels/tires balanced before you install them.

Why? Did he dismount the OEM tires and replace them?
If the wheels are OEM and "perfect" without any dings or blemishes...the price is no bad at all....assuming you relly like them

Actually, I prefer the optional 18" AMG twin spokes.

I assume it is because he removed the TPM sensors.

Only worth $1000.00 to me. I would buy them to autocross in stock class or for drag radials for the strip.

No, I am not "sad." I've had my wheels since delivery last October. And if they had been available they would have had throwaway tires on them anyway.

I would have buyer's remorse though, had I bought a white car with a black tex interior. Now THAT is sad.

Sheep are white.

Not black inside though. Matter of fact, my 1st MB was white with a red interior.
