Is it a 430 or 320? It depends on the year and model too. For instance, all 02 430s come w/ 17" AMG thinspoke as part of the sport's package.

I would keep the stock rims as a back-up and sell the Lorinser when you don't want it. Used Lorinser rims are worth alot more than stock AMG rims

if you are selling rims from a 2001 CLk430, the rims are 17" thin spoke (not the ultra thin spoke from '02+) AMG.

If they are in 'perfect' condition with no sratches, i imagine it will fetch about $8-900. It also depends on the condition of the tires too, but overall, i don't imagine you will get more than $1,000

I would suggest you keep the OEM rims in case you sell the car, since a lot of people (esp dealers) want the original equipment. Plus, that way you can sell the aftermarket rims back out so you don't lose too much versus leaving it on the car.

if those are the rims... and the tires are in perfect condition, then i would say, it would fetch maybe $300.

sorry to disappoint you... but those aren't even the stock rims for a CLk430...
