Yes, they are AMG. They have the silver star center which is not shown in the picture. I can weigh them and the stock wheels and let you know the difference. I didn't have time to mount them yesterday so no pics yet.

I don't know what the weather is like down under but it's been raining here all week so I haven't had a chance to mount them yet. It's supposed to clear up tommorow so possibly I'll have pictures tomorrow night, at the latest on Sunday morning.

The 18X8.5 & 18X9.5 are listed on the Mercedes AMG website Wheel Generator for W209 CLK55:
http://www.mercedes-benz.com/amg/e/f.../generator.htm
They show the following:
18X8.5 et30
18X9.5 et18
If that offset listing of et18 is correct that seems difficult to fit.

Here are the Pics I Promised
The rear wheels would not fit with the H&R springs so I had to go back to the stock springs (for now, I have a plan to make these wheels work with the H&R springs. More on that later). Without further delay, here are my pictures.

Nice pics of the rims. You have convinced me to get some although I don't know wether 18's or 19's. Do you if 19's fit?. But nice car. I love it.
