2009 SL63/65 Replica Wheels
After a winter of pounding potholes here in New Jersey, I have two slow leaks and Mercedes wants $560 to straighten all 4 of the stock rims on my 2007 E550 Sport (2wd) with staggered 10 spoke wheels. I need new tires anyway, so if I'm going to make a change now is the time.
Looking around I see a bunch of CL63 19" and SL63/65 18" replicas for around the same price as fixing my stock rims. My personal preference is the 2009 SL 18" wheels, but what I'm really after is this same 2009 SL design in a 19" wheel. I'm skeptical that my stock 10 spokes are much better than the replicas, probably made in China just like these but I could be wrong.
This is what I'm after, but in a 19" if possible:

Can anyone recommend a source for these is 19"? or 18"? And can anyone share any experiences good or bad with how the finish holds up on these replicas?
I found this one place oemwheelplus that has them in 18" for about $600 per set shipped. Anyone ever buy from them?
Any photos of these on an W211?

I have a set of 08 CLS63 AMG OEM Wheels for SALE, you might be interested. I has it on my 08 W211 E350 with Sport PKG.

Thanks, but I'm really looking for this SL63 wheel in 19". I think I know which wheel you are talking about and that one does look pretty good on the W211, but I think these SL63 wheels would look even better.
I've found a couple of sources for replicas of the wheel in 18", and a 'pretty close' version in 19" but not this particular wheel yet.
I also priced them from Mercedes, about $4800 a set, which is a bit more than I want to put into this car. I might go about $2000 for factory takeoffs, or $1000 for good quality replicas.

Anyway, good luck on your search. I saw some OEM on ebay for about $2,300.00 to $3,000.00 with tires.
