I can't tell you if these items are legit. If I wanted AMG rims I'd get it from the dealer of from another aftermarket co.

Yes - Authentic/Legit/Real Deal - whatever you want to call it.

But, I think the price is too much. You should be able to get take offs with new tires for that price. Furthermore, the $200 shipping price is further proof the seller wants every penny possible. Actual shipping will probably be closer to $125.

Yes, those are authentic. F1 is one of the sponsors in the forum www.mymbonline.com.
Several members on here belong on mbworld.org & mymbonline.com. They can give you assurance that that is a sponsor for MB parts and accessories.

thanks for the respond...Just thought it would be nice to put it in my car. But don't want 20' because I don't want to deal with the hassle of tire, camber etc...I still want a comfortable ride. Once again, thank you.

Do you have a recommended source for take-offs?
