C63 AMG 507 Edition
Look at ADV5.0. Virtually identical. http://adv1wheels.com/wheelcollectio...-0overview.php

It wouldn't surprise me to find out the stock 507 wheels are BBS's.

Have a look at the 507 wheel up close. AMG logo embedded in the wheel, machined silver rim, matte black finish. These are beautiful!

'15 Polar White Edition 507 / 2010 Jeep Wrangler (kart hauler)
The OP was looking at replicas, not stock wheels. I was just trying to offer options. 507 wheels are just wheels. Nice, yes, but not that big a deal.

lol! Nah, I have the black ones too. Don't get me wrong, they are very nice and what sets the car apart from the other bazillion C63's out there. Probably one reason the OP wants to find something like them. But price has him looking for an alternative.

^^ I agree, the 507 are beautiful wheels but not worth the big $$.
In that price range, it's better to look for custom forged wheels built to ur liking (flush fitment). Spending big money to use spacers doesn't make much sense.

What about the Niche Targa M129? Nice looking wheel. They are a couple of pounds heavier than the originals.

In my experience, most places that list reconditioned OEM wheels either don't have them in stock or they have not been repaired properly. I have not dealt with that company listed but it is usually best to purchase them used from someone on the forum that did a wheel swap.
You can always call them to see what they say

I agree, worth it to call and check. Also find out if any warranty/guarantees on them as well. My only issue is the Wheel/Tire protection I bought only covers OEM wheels, so I can't get aftermarkets if I want to use it

I have the 19" multispoke replicas and have had them on my car for several thousand miles with no issues. Obviously they are replicas (with little resale value) so not as high quality as real ones; but you can't tell the difference with them mounted on the car and they cost 1/5 as much.

Man, this thread is so funny. You guys have C63s, not Honda Civics. Wheels are pretty important. I wouldn't trust a Chinese knockoff in a million years with how fast we all drive these cars, although congratulations to all above who have so far been lucky. You get what you pay for... and I'd rather spend a bit more on this - and less on carbon fiber, plastidip, or lights - and have the piece of mind that comes with a wheel built with quality known materials and methods that have been rigorously developed, tested, and properly certified. The lengths some guys go to save a few bucks...

Good catch I did not see the "c63 style" vs. fitment for a C63. Definitely check with the seller or search for a different vendor...I know they aren't the only ones.

While I'm not a fan of replicas, I don't see a problem with OEM reconditioned wheels. As long as repairs are done right, and they back their product I'm not too concerned.
