AMG Mono Block for 95 E320A
I have a set of AMG 17" Mono Block rims, but I want to get a pair of the same 17" Rims that look the same but with a lip. I dont care of they are real AMG or some other brand that make look alikes.
As long as they look like my AMGs but with a lip its all good. I am absolutly new, so I dont even know any brands or names or websites, I took a look on tirerack, but I am not sure if those have a lip.
Anyways here is my car any help would be great.

Don't give me any lip.
My impression is that the hub and fender combination of the W124 tends to force you to use a wheel and offset that does not readily allow for a lip. I thought the flat face was a critical fitment feature, not just a design element. I have seen some W124 cars with lip, however, and I think they must roll their fenders and use AMG fender spacers to fit wider wheels that have some lip. I am not an expert, but that is how I thought it worked. Otherwise, I think you would see more W124s with lip.
I have seen AMGs with a polished lip and although it is not a bigger lip, the polishing seems to make the lip more noticeable.

Yeah usually on the factory installs with amg like the c36 the front was the "lipless" whereas the rear was the deeper one...from what I have noticed. Only the aftermarket has the thin lip in the rears. When i bought them the picture showed a lip but when they arrived they were the lipless on all 4...I just forgot about it and figured it was good enough.
