Monoblocks

Am I seeing things or are Monoblocks really this cheap now? Hope these are new? I have chrome ones right now and looking to go to the painted silver ones now.

these aren't OEM marko.. you can't get new oem monos exept from dealer as we speak!

not worth to spend 1 $ on replicas.

wait for an oem set to appear on ebay or these forums bro!!

If everything goes as planned I will be selling my monos within 6 months.
How much should I ask for them?
They do have curb rash and have some oxidation, but with a refinish they will be perfect oem wheels

Agreed! The 18" Monos are nice, and look great on the w202. But the 19's look even better! Its too bad that they are so rare and expensive...

If someone made replica 19" AMG monos, I would buy them in a heartbeat, as long as they said AMG on the face.

But so sexy... Replicas are both well made and MUCH lighter, if you shop around.
