Just my early weekend Rant after dealing with "F--king Idiots" at work all week... Forgive me
P.S: Oh forgot to tell you that the 19" AMG 16 spoke (OEM European P30 wheel) that I purchased for summer use arrived at the dealer yesterday.They will be mounted on delivery with P-Zeros. (19.35.235F / 19.30.265R). My dealer is doing an straight swap with the OEM P-Zero "Take-offs" for the new Pirelli Winter W240-Sottozero Series II (18.40.235 F&R)
This is not an inexpensive solution but what I think is a very viable and solid alternative. There are few things worse then seeing an AMG (or similar) performance car on the road in winter with cheap aftermarket wheels.
NOW I just need to get delivery of the car LOL (est. 59 days and counting)

I think the ones that want the 19s like myself only want to pay a small upcharge (ala M3) and not "thousands" like yourself. Living in the west, we are lucky for only needing one set of tires for all year round use. I for one, do not need an extra set of wheels/tires lying around.

So true. Its like the don't even look at the competition. Having keyless go available in canada, but not in the us? Its such a standard thing on so many american cars now I dont see any reason to hold it back.

Fortunately here in Canada we (at least I am) are having the opposite experience. MB Canada has been VERY accommodating at every turn lately. (It hasn't always been so) Lets hope they stay this way
