that seems not original C55..!?!,
AMG start to modified C43 to 5.4l in "Apr/1999",,
according to VIN #, deliver date was Dec/1998, means the car was established in Sep/1998..

No 18" wheels are listed and this is also the reason I need to switch to my OE 17" when I am called for the technical inspection every 2 years...

If the W208 Clk55 came with 17's why on earth would one think a factory built W202 c55 would come with 18's
I doubt it. I believe the rims stayed at 17 s just like the CLK55
I say Pagz is 100 percent correct! Only thing special ordered is the differential from the clk55 and the 5.4liter motor and maybe but not 100 percent sure the Ecu programming, but we have seen you can just drop in a 5.4 liter motor and it will still run strong with the c43 programming in the labled AMG ECU.

Good point..
,
18's came as optional with "E55",
they put gearbox from "R129 Sl500", but don't think they put 5.4l from "Clk55", cause original one has differ #: "113.983"..!!

I think W202 C55 will be for sale again this week. Last week hasn't been sold. Keep an eye on Japanese car auctions guys. I wanted to check VIN number but there was mistake on the report- only 16 digits.I would recommend to look on Wednesday or Thursday. If you would like to bid, any action should be taken earlier :-)
