For Sale Authentic Lorinser LM5

They are in the Diamond cut finish and are in perfect condition since Ive only had them for a month. There are people on the forum that have seen the wheels and can confirm this. Im going back to stock till I decide what to do with my car. Asking price is $3500 shipped and thats for 5 wheels with Lorinser center caps and all 20 Lorinser bolts.

These are 2 piece wheels from Germany, I know they have replicas out there but Ive never been one to put fake knockoffs on my Benz expecially not a clk430.

These wheels are selling for $1299.00 each for the front and $1389.00 each for the rear at performanceproducts.com that totals to $5376 not including shipping and for only 4 wheels. I agree that its too much money brand new but that will only mean these wheels will be extremely exclusive only for the BALLERS

check for yourself

http://www.performanceproducts.com/P...producttype=20


e-mail ultima972@msn.com or PM me if interested.

sorry about that the wheels are 18 x 8.5 front and 18 x 9.5 rear

2 pc. wheels made in Germany of light alloy. Im selling the wheels without the tires but since I wont be needing them Ill sell the tires for $200 more which will cover the additional shipping.

The tires are Dunlop 9000 235/40 and 265/35 rear made in Japan

my main reason for upgrading the wheels is to be able to go with wider tires to make the clk look more aggressive. As you can see for yourself the wheels fill the fenders perfectly.

this pic I parked next to a 911 Carrera 4 and my tire setup looked more aggressive.

I strongly believe these wheels with a 1 inch drop will make the car look AWESOME.

sorry for the misunderstanding but the $3000 with tires is for the 4 wheels and tires on the car in the picture. Those are the wheels that Im selling...had them on for a little over a month. The is a slight bent on the front wheel and all the others are absolutely perfect.

here is a picture of the bent wheel and as you can see there is still about 90% tire left

Lou,

I think you might have forgot to mention that change in your thread.. You went from 5 wheels and 4 tires to 3 good wheels, 1 slightly bent and 4 tires..

Good Luck with the wheels..

Alex Im sorry for the misunderstanding but my original post was a while ago and I forgot I mention 5 wheels.

if you read my original post I was selling the 5 wheels and no tires for $3500 and also said that for $3700 I would sell everything.

Then I posted for $3K you get the wheels and the tires but I couldnt sell with the fifth wheel at that price. I dont know what the big deal is about if you still want to do the deal on the wheels Ill get that dent fix to perfection local and send you 4 perfect wheels with the tires for that price. You would not even notice which wheel was fix since its so small of a dent.


If you want the 4 wheels and tires and the extra brand new Lroinser LM5 I can do it for $3400 plus shipping and that is a great deal bro.

this wheel alone cost over $1K

Is the diamond cut finish same as the Brushed/Clearcoat finish or is it just the regular silver finish?

BTW, do you have a close-up on the wheel?

I dont understand your question since Lorinser only makes them in two different finishes: chrome and diamond cut.....which does look like a brushed/clearcoat finish. The plain silver finish is what they use on the fake replicas LM5 you find on ebay and stuff.

I hope I answered your question and if you're still interested email me at ultima972@msn.com or just PM me

Alex its only a couple of hundreds lets just close the deal...I don't understand I was originally selling over $4000 and now its $3400 and its still not enough. I like a killer deal also but this is a great deal and you know it. You can get cheaper wheels but thats exactly what you'll be getting cheaper, inferior wheels. You drive a CLK55 why put anything else but Lorinser ????

The best wheels come from Japan and Germany and neither are cheap...expecially German right now considering the euro.

Lou,

My offer is the absolute best I can do.. I still have shipping on top of that..

My other consideration is that I'm not all that crazy about the tires and will still have to try to sell or trade them. I pretty much have to have S-03's or PS2's. - so there is still a big cost for me there...

Alex
