AMG 18's... in 19's?

Hi All,
I wonder if anyone knows where/or if its possible to get the AMG 18's (as per the pic), in 19's? I have them in 18's but want to get them in 19's

Thanks,

Keep

what ride quality you have along with your dignity. Retain the 18's
Or if you are from Compton or San Jose go for some 22's
Got a spare 1300 bucks around?

almost sure to crack the first pot hole you dive into

Ohlord has hit the nail on the head. I recently put on 19" amg reps (temporarily while i wait for my snows) and although it looks like a whole new car the ride quality sucks. I also had my entire front end (ball joints, tie rods, bearings, control arms, everything) and the ride was so smooth on my factory 17's but with the 19's you will feel the road

While I disagree that 19's make you ghetto or destroy your car, I do agree that reps are garbage and should be avoided. If your stuck on 19's, get some OEM wheels that are offered in a 19" from the factory.

the 18" replicas I have had for about 8 months are great! Smooth ride and everything, but I think they are really high quality compared to cheap imitations. The seller does not appear to have them right now, but his name on eBay is "wheelsandcaps." Good luck.

I've heard that they actually do make 19in monoblocks. They're very hard to find though.

This guy has them and supposedly they're not replicas: https://mbworld.org/forums/w210-amg/...tiful-e55.html
