No, they're the Sport/non-AMG wheels for the '10's.
I love these wheels, and personally wouldn't have taken my car with the 6-Spokes. I guess it was a bonus that for once, my choice was the cheaper version, lol.
I'm very happy that all the '11's are seemingly getting different wheels, as it keeps the '10's 5-Spokes relatively more "rare" perhaps, once the cars production run is more settled in.

Not to make matters worse, but MAN are they easy to clean too! LOL. The 6-Spokes certainly aren't "bad" looking wheels though, just a matter of preference.
Even though MBUSA supplies the vast majority of W212's with a very low cost AMG Sports Package, at least there's a wide variety of wheels (3 for the Sports Package alone in two years) to mix things up on the roads.
A negative of my wheels are how they protrude out a bit (designed to make for a cooler and more dynamic look I guess), so they're VERY easy to scrape. All my wheels are scraped up, even the drivers side.... I have no idea how that is possible. Hopefully not during the one time I took it to a Car Wash.

It really is a pleasure to drive. I had no idea that with the AMG sport package on it that it would still be such a smooth and comfortable ride. I initially wanted the other spoked amg wheels but I really like these now that I have them!
K-A, love your smoked tail lights. I wanted to go find a pair of clear side markers to put on, will search the forum

I drive a 2013 ML350
Curious, thought I was the only Floridian with a 4MATIC? Was that by choice? I like the 4MATIC for the hard rains on expressway travel, and if I make it up North again.

haha I know what you mean. I got the 4matic for a few reasons, my last car was an Audi A5 Quattro and I got really used to the 4 wheel drive in rainy conditions. I was also looking at a RWD E350 and the price between this one and that one was very minimal. I think 1,000$... and I also may head back up north so it will definitely be a good feature to have if I do.
