I finally got new wheels on my 4matic
Hey i've been wanting to get a new set of wheels for years and i finally got these AMG replicas
i luv the look and though these simply replaced my 17" OEM's i figured i'd save some $$ for a summer set which i'm hoping to be 19" BBs CH's still
I really didn't want to make any changes with the wheels and tire setup for the 4matic ... especially for the winter
Thanks for taking a peek .....

Thanks Micro ![Smilie](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
Actual AMGs i believe are anywhere between $3000 to $4000 and these replicas were under $1000 so i'm hoping they withstand the roads of NJ/NY
and beside i'm looking to get 19" CHs sometime next summer yay
I got 17" so i could keep the same tires i have now but these do come in 18's and 19"s ....... see link below![Smilie](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)

Those are 17's? Damn they look bigger than the stock ones. Probably cause of the thinner spokes. Either way their hot. If you ever want to sell them in the future let me know!

Thanks guys for the compliments ![Smilie](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
I know for most of you guys that 1" difference from either 17" to 18" or 18" to 19" makes a big difference ..... to think i thought that 1" meant more to a woman
juust kidding !!
Well now that i see the 5 spoke design i can see why some of you guys don't like the CHs soo who knows what i'll get as summer setup now
?? ohh i also once considered the MRR GT1's and they're not too expensive either ?!

Thanks .... i was pondering whether i wanted to stay at 17" but like i said before i really didnt want to mess around with the 4matic setup right before the winter thus i stayed with the 17"

Cool
You'll really luv the look of the wheels because i think the pictures dont do it any justice especially on my color combination with steel grey
I guess this is what a forum is all about ....sharing ! Granted some may like the mod and some may not but at least if you get a visual one can decide on his/her own if that's right for them !

Just a quick question, in person do these wheels look like their bigger than your stock 17s? (Even though they aren't?) Cause I'm contemplating getting those or 18s but with those in 17s I wouldn't have to get new tires.

Looking good Elaine,
Does the silver paint on the spoke match your car's paint exactly? Little lighter/darker?
