1998 CLK 320
clk rims---AMG Style I Ultrathin Spoke

Hi, I'm new to the forum and I am hoping someone can help. I just asked my dealer for the new Ultrathin Spoke AMG Rims Style I but the only seem to have the Thinspoke. I know the Ultrathins are out there but don't know where to get them. The dealers also said Mercedes doesn't have 18" rims for the CLK??? Are these guys on drugs or are they for real?

The Ultrathins are good cause I'm planning on getting shiny bright red calipers for both front wheels which will show through the rims.

Any advice on this would be AWESOME !!!

I'm not sure what you are talking about. Check my website www.wheelexperts.com and see if the one you are looking for is listed.

high-roller,

There ARE 18" AMG Styling III (ultra thin spoke) wheels available for the CLK. However, they are available only in the multipiece version, which cost almost double the price of the one-piece versions.

They are 7.5x18ET37 for the front and 8.5x18ET34 for the rear. Check them out at the following URL.
http://www.autoclass.net/catalog/wheels/amg.html

There is an 18-inch version of the one-piece Styling III wheels, but it's available only for the new SL R230 and the new E-class W211 and I don't think they'll fit without mods.
