Inexpensive Aftermarket Wheels...

I know some of you have posted pix of 18 and 19" wheels purchased (new) inexpensively.

Can you please post where I can get some good aftermarket wheels fairly cheap.

TIA

Ebay has a plethora of inexpensive "knock off rims" that even I have been considering. Anyone have experience in the 19" 2 piece AMG ones or the Carlsson or Kleemann ones? Any good sellers that anyone have experience with?

I have been thinking the same thing! I wonder what they weigh and what the proper offset is for my c55 for 19's staggered 8.5/9.5 or 8.5 all around. Thanks!

I have been trying like hell to find C55 takeoffs, but they are no where to be found. Tire Rack sells them, but they are big bucks.

Try here ---> http://buywheelstoday.com/

My 18" Mandrus Millennium w/Toyo T1R's were 1680 shipped w/centers, valve stems, bolts, mounting and balancing.

They had the widest selection of reasonably prices wheels I have found anywhere.

Hey, I-Forged, DPE and HRE are nice, but I'm not putting 8k worth of wheels on a 5 year old clk.

your welcome to visit the one piece staggered section of our site. Most wheels here offer nice lip sizes and different finishes with flush fitment.

We carry MANDRUS wheels if you would like to purchase them from a authorized sponsor of the forum.

Clear out your PM box Joe...I'll check on the tires for you, but I won't be home for another 3-4 hours.
