New wheels for my CLK
Hi guys, I'm looking for new 18" or 19" wheels for my Black 2003 CLK320 for $1000. I really like the C63 AMG multispoke rims, so I want some rims that are similar: ~16 spokes, clean look, no lip, silver or machined. I also want the rims to look like they belong on the car (keep it looking OEM). I don't want to use spacers for the rims either so the rims have to have the right offsets. Can you please suggest rims that look like this:
So far, I have seen two rims. The VMR V709 Hyper Silver. This rim is very close to the AMG multispoke. This rim only comes in 19x8.5, so I can't stagger the wheels.

And the TSW Mallory 5 Silver w/ Mirror Cut Face. This one doesn't have straight spokes though, but comes in meny sizes so I can stagger the wheels.

Will these fit on my car? Both of these have too thick of an outside edge behind the spokes, compared to the C63 rims.

I have wheels made by Mandrus. I think they are owned by TSW. I bought the milleium wheels a couple years ago. Still love them. They, however, have machined lips ( i think 1 and 2.5 inches). They are staggered.
I checked their site and they have a new wheel similiar to the ones you pictured. Take a look.

Happy hunting.

Thanks for the suggestion, those rims are really nice, How much do they cost?

The wheels for sale are really nice, but that post was dated august of 2011. They're either sold or you probably don't want them.......
Besides, I think AMG wheels and tires may be $1200 a piece, and not for the set. Just my guess.......Others can help with the offset question and if it will fit. I have not checked but the answer to that question may be in a sticky at the top of the main forum screen.
