pretty much......different shades I guess none of which very thrilling, I do love the 40sc itself though....a great looking wheel with a nice amount of concavity

I've enjoyed all the rims you've had in the past, all look good IMO

thanks!

no plans for any further mods, did the rear spoiler, 20" HRE 840R rims and a pedalbox, which made an amazing difference, no turbo lag, the car feels like an AMG

I purchased the wheels from another forum member here, but had to have them resealed, partially painted and a few other minor repairs which took a couple weeks in the shop

oh that's great, so it IS possible to sell used wheels
maybe I'm asking too much......but half price seems like a good way to move them
I've had several asking, but no cash yet

I think people are looking for a particular wheel or look, so may take a little time to sell used wheels, I sold a set of MB OEM wheels on eBay which took a few months before someone in Russia bought them, shipped them to Russia, lol
