I just went to the MB dealership to pick up my car after the B service was complete and I saw those rims on a brand new E63. GREAT looking rim , REAL expensive I'm sure. Stay away from the curbs with those bad boys....

Thanks, I don't know what I would do without the auto-tilting mirror..lol..I'm sure they are real expensive also, but these are reps. I couldn't justify spending all that money on OEM's when you could get great quality reps for a quarter of the price. Use the rest of the money on some more mods..

Yeah that's a no brainer there especially after close examination they look EXACTLY like the ones I saw the other day, which were OEM of course. GREAT BUY, GREAT RIMS, GREAT LOOK

How do your reps weigh compared to the OEMs? Are they heavier?
