Would you change the wheels of your BS?

Well,
I may be a mionority of one, but all-black rims do nothing for me. If the car came with those, I'd be looking for ones that look just like OEM.
By the way, has anybody taken the stock rims off the car and looked at them? They are very well made. AS

MBWorld Fanatic!
I like the look but I think it is an acquired taste.
Do you have any issues with rubbing in the rear? It looks like under any compression you may have fender contact....
What are the sizes and offsets?

you guys should check you neez wheels. they are fully custom wheels that are made in japan, and they make very nice designs in either aluminum or magnesium. I spoke to one of the guys there, and they said in september they will have an offset for the black series. search neez international on google and you will find them.

2002 CLK 55 AMG Coupé
I'm sick too... becuase the "photobucket" has taken away the photos????
FYI CLK DTM wheels can be ordered from AMG, but they don't come cheap - over 2000 euros per rim. An alternative is OZ Superleggra III -really the same wheel, but in stock form it comes without the flange to support the HWA/AMG/MB little hubcap that hides the CLK DTM's lug bolts. In other words, the extra unsrpung weight for that little hubcap is going to cost you a bundle!

Amg Clk 63 Black Series
Hi,
I received a price for the OME rims in Australia 21000AUS approx 18000US
I am still in shock. Though when I read the prices you can buy for it is disappointing even the car was 270000 US. Our taxes on expensive cars
kill us.
I received a price from HRE Performance Wheels
2008 Mercedes CLK63 AMG "Black Series"
HRE Monoblok
Front Size: 19x8.5
Rear Size: 19x10
Wheels alone: $5900 + $775 Shipping to Australia with insurance
our rims are 9 and 9.5 inch? which is strange.
I am trying to get a price from Australian made wheels though they
are still waiting on some measurements before they quote.
The evosport car with the black spokes looks great, not sure if that is
OEM.
The Dymag rims were quoted in AUS at 15000 Australian ,our exchange rate
with UK is not that flash.
Has anyone put bigger 19inch rims with larger tyres on? the Evosport
mods for a client didnt mention if the rims and tyres will be changed.
Looking forward to getting to the track a second time shortly.
