18" inch AMG rim off C63 new for 995?
http://s492.photobucket.com/albums/r...=e63single.jpghttp://i492.photobucket.com/albums/r...460/photo6.jpg
I found a local who owns a shop sell these rims he asking for 995 for these 4 rim with out tire.
is it too good to be true or this is the normal average price?
I've not seen a 18" C63 AMG rim before I'm not sure if is the same look as the standard C300 optional 18" AMG or is different.
any expert can give some advise?

Shady...I'd stay away. Those are clearly replicas but the manufacturer is trying to pass them off as real AMG rims...notice the AMG stamp.

That is for a set of 4. I know people think of replica rims in a negative way. If they have the certifications (DOT, JWL, VIA and TUV) and are a design you like, I say go for it.
They say they are a replica rim. I have never seen an AMG rim in that design. They are a replica only because they have AMG on them.

You can buy the real ones off current c63 owners for a good price with tires as others have mentioned. As far as replicas go, you can buy great replica rims, just get someone who is experienced to go with you. The price you were quoted isn't too bad, maybe you can pay a few hundred more for better replicas. I would just be concerned that someone is trying to pass off real AMG rims, there's no integrity in his business dealings so I would go somewhere else.

thats true...
since the car is lease i might just end up with staying with Factory wheel instead... so far i have no luck finding any one selling a set of used AMG rims. ebays are selling for over 2.2k for 18inch AMG which out of my price range.
thanks for the headsup
