Great rims...looks nice...gives me something to think about.
Noob question here....with the new rims did you need new TPMS, or is that only when you use different tires...

Wow... had no idea the 17"s were available.
Nice find! Excellent setup for those who don't want to size up to the 18"/19" wheels.
More pics would be nice to show off the offsets, etc?

I have to agree with you on understated on how the Steel Grey Metallic looks in pictures. When I saw the color in person, I canned the idea of iridium silver in a heartbeat and bought steel grey. BTW, nice wheels.
I wish you best of luck with the ny/nj roads. Everytime I wack holes i don't see, I'm feeling for my wheels and want to
myself for not avoiding it.

white and whiter
I myself cannot tell the difference however a few of the guys i hang out with are more knowledgeable about wheels/cars have said this if that means anything. I say go for the 17"s just to avoid getting new tires for the 18" and get a nice 19' setup for the summertime instead no
??

I honestly cant tell the difference regarding the ride from oem 17s to these so i'm very happy with that and i believe what thompsonrobert was referring to when asking about the chrome strip was the strips on the lower panels of our doors.

i do a little OT but the extra one was sent to me as another one for a backup. (I guess) It's new still in the box with no problems at all. I think it is the best looking lip out there. =)

Was just looking at the website from where you got these wheels and the 17" rims say AMG on them but the 18" ones do not.. wonder why? Yeah yeah I know I should call them..
