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.

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.
